Electrical and thermal transport properties of electrically stressed Bi–Sb–Te nanocrystalline thin films
TL;DR: In this article, an electric current stressing treatment was proposed to eliminate crystal defects in sputtered Bi-Sb-Te films at low temperature, which achieved a low thermal conductivity of 0.6-0.7 W/mK.

Enhancement of carrier transport properties of BixSb2−xTe3 compounds by electrical sintering process
Chien-Neng Liao,Li-Chieh Wu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that electric-current induced atomic diffusion plays an important role in modulating crystal defects in BixSb2−xTe3 compounds and showed that the electrical sintering approach can preserve fine-grain microstructure, and hence low thermal conductivity of Bixsb2+xte3 with reasonable electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficient.

High-temperature thermoelectric energy conversion—I. Theory☆
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the high-temperature thermoelectric energy-conversion theory and showed that semiconductors are the logical choices for high-figure of merit-value materials, but the requirements for optimization differ depending on whether the material is classed as a broadband or narrowband semiconductor.
