Local order in a disordered Zintl phase boosts its thermoelectric performance
Understanding heat conduction in solids is fundamental to the design of high-performing thermoelectric materials. Now, a combined computational and experimental study shows how local order paired with long-range disorder leads to a desirable reduction in thermal conductivity while retaining high ele...

Sumario: | Understanding heat conduction in solids is fundamental to the design of high-performing thermoelectric materials. Now, a combined computational and experimental study shows how local order paired with long-range disorder leads to a desirable reduction in thermal conductivity while retaining high electron mobility in the Zintl phase Eu2ZnSb2. |
