SnTe is considered a potential alternative to PbTe, but the high carrier concentration and
high thermal conductivity limit its thermoelectric performance. In this work, a synergistic …

Lead-based thermoelectric materials have a maximum figure of merit but are hazardous to
humans and the environment. For this reason, we can replace tin-based lead-free materials …

Minimizing lattice thermal conductivity, κ l, of thermoelectric materials is an effective strategy
to enhance their figure-of-merit, zT. However, the amorphous limit of κl affects the ceiling of …

A facile one-pot aqueous solution method has been developed for the fast and
straightforward synthesis of SnTe nanoparticles in more than ten gram quantities per batch …

SnTe is a promising replacement for PbTe due to its non-toxicity and high thermoelectric
conversion efficiency. However, it suffers from poor performance caused by the presence of …

Structural properties of pristine and 3% Se doped SnTe were studied for thermoelectric
applications. The solvothermal method is used to synthesize materials. Powder XRD was …

In this work, we introduced two-dimensional (2D) WSe2 with the lowest heat conductivity to
enhance thermoelectric properties of the non-toxic and cost-effective SnTe. On one hand …
