Research Update: Prediction of high figure of merit plateau in SnS and solid solution of (Pb,Sn)S
Direct conversion between thermal and electrical energy can be achieved by thermoelectric materials, which provide a viable route for power generation and solid state refrigeration. Here, we use a combination of energetic, electronic, and vibrational first-principles based results to predict the fig...
