Enhancement of thermoelectric power factor in composite thermoelectrics
David J. Bergman,Leonid G. Fel +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the analytical properties of macroscopic transport coefficients of two-component composites are first used to discuss the thermoelectric power factor of such a composite, with the greatest enhancement always achieved in a parallel slabs microstructure with definite volume fractions.

High-pressure synthesis, characterization, and tuning of solid state materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis, characterization, and tuning of solid state materials by means of high-pressure techniques is reviewed from the perspective of a solid state chemist, and several different examples ranging from the behavior of carbon under pressure to oxide materials and intermetallic compounds are presented.
