Tellurium as a high-performance elemental thermoelectric
Good thermoelectric materials are often complex compounds. Here, the authors reveal that elemental tellurium has a high thermoelectric figure of merit between 300 and 700 K when doped with As, with the potential advantages of easy preparation and relative isotropy.
