"Enhancement of thermoelectric figure-of-merit in a wide temperature range in In4Se3-xCl0.03 bulk crystals" by Jong-Soo Rhyee, Dr. Kyunghan Ahn, Dr. Kyu Hyoung Lee, Hyo Seok Ji, Prof. Ji-Hoon Shim has now been published online.
The state-of-the-art record of thermoelectric figure-of-merit (ZT) of 1.53 at 425 ¡ÆC is achieved by chlorine doping in In4Se3–xCl0.03 bulk crystalline materials as used for n-type thermoelectric energy harvesting. The low-dimensional property imparted by chlorine doping significantly increases the electrical conductivity and reduces the thermal conductivity resulting in a high power factor over a wide temperature range.
