Thermoelectric and phonon transport properties of two-dimensional IV–VI compounds

Abstract We explore the thermoelectric and phonon transport properties of two-dimensional monochalcogenides (SnSe, SnS, GeSe, and GeS) using density functional theory combined with Boltzmann transport theory. We studied the electronic structures, Seebeck coefficients, electrical conductivities, latt...
