Synthesis of SnTe/AgSbSe2 nanocomposite as a promising lead-free thermoelectric material

A series of SnTe-AgSbSe2 composites were synthesized by a zone-melting method. The nanostructure of the composites was determined by the high resolution transmission electron microscope. The results show that the lattice thermal conductivity is decreased to ∼0.6 W/m·K at 820 K due to the intense sca...
