Improved thermoelectric properties in ceramic composites based on Ca3Co4O9 and Na2Ca2Nb4O13

The oxide materials Ca3Co4O9 and Na2Ca2Nb4O13 were combined in a new ceramic composite with promising synergistic thermoelectric properties. Both compounds show a plate-like crystal shape and similar aspect ratios but the matrix material Ca3Co4O9 with lateral sizes of less than 500 nm is about two o...
