Half-Heusler alloys are leading candidate materials for large scale thermoelectric power
generation. In the past decade, substantial improvements have been made to the …

Half-Heusler alloys are among the most promising thermoelectric materials. In the present
review, thermoelectric properties (at 300 K and 800 K) of more than 1100 compositions from …

This paper presents tables of key thermoelectric properties, which define thermoelectric
conversion efficiency, for a wide range of inorganic materials. The twelve families of …

Thermoelectric materials can be potentially applied to waste heat recovery and solid-state
cooling because they allow a direct energy conversion between heat and electricity and vice …

Recent discoveries of materials with ultralow thermal conductivity open a pathway to
significant developments in the field of thermoelectricity. Here, we conduct a comparative …

The high lattice thermal conductivity of half-Heuslers (HHs) restricts the further enhancement
of their thermoelectric figure-of-merit (ZT). In this study, multiscale scattering centers, such as …

Electronic structure with reference to bandgap energies play a significant role in deciding
the dimensionless figure of merit (ZT), which in turn is used to identify the thermoelectric …

In this study, we investigated the RNiSb (R= Sc, Y) half-Heusler material for various
properties including structural, electronic, mechanical, elastic anisotropic, optical, and …

The electronic and band structures of the Gd-and Sb-based intermetallic materials have
been explored using the theoretical ab initio approach, accounting for strong electron …

In comparison with intensively investigated traditional ternary half-Heusler compounds,
quaternary half-Heusler alloys exhibit inherently lower lattice thermal conductivities due to …
