Exploration of magnesium based MgX2O4 (X = Rh, Bi) spinels for thermoelectric applications using density functional theory (DFT)

By using WIEN2k code, we investigated the mechanical and thermoelectric properties of magnesium based MgX2O4 (X = Rh and Bi) spinels. To compute the mechanical behavior of MgX2O4 (X = Rh and Bi), the Perdew-Bruke-Ernzerhof (PBEsol) flavor of generalized gradient approximation is used. From structura...
