Ab initio optimization of phonon drag effect for lower-temperature thermoelectric energy conversion
It has been well known that the phonon drag effect-an extra electrical current induced by phonon heat flow via electron-phonon interaction-can lead to unusually high Seebeck coefficient at low temperatures. However, its use for improving thermoelectric performance has been controversial. Here, using...
