Pressure Effect on Superconductivity of Iron-based Arsenic-oxide ReFeAsO0.85 (Re=Sm and Nd)

TL;DR: In this article, pressure effect on superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of ReFeAsO0.85 and Nd FeAsO 0.85 without fluorine doping was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Study on anisotropy of n-type Mg3Sb2-based thermoelectric materials

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that texturing is good for higher thermoelectric performance, suggesting that single crystals of n-type Mg3Sb2-based Zintl compounds are worth pursuing.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Directions for Low-Dimensional Thermoelectric Materials

TL;DR: In this article, the ability to achieve a simultaneous increase in the power factor and a decrease in the thermal conductivity of the same nanocomposite sample and for transport in the same direction is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancement of thermoelectric performance in n-type PbTe 1−y Se y by doping Cr and tuning Te:Se ratio

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported a systematic study of Cr doping in PbTe1−ySey with y=0, 0.015Pb0.985Te0.75Se0.01Pb 0.99Te 0.25Se 0.75 Se0.25 was obtained due to a lowered thermal conductivity and enhanced power factor.

Controlled improvement in specific contact resistivity for thermoelectric

TL;DR: In this article, IBE donors and acceptors were ion-implanted into n-type and p-type (Bi,Sb)2(Se,Te)3 materials, respectively, to achieve >10 times higher doping at the surface.
