Ag-Mg antisite defect induced high thermoelectric performance of α-MgAgSb
Abstract Engineering atomic-scale native point defects has become an attractive strategy to improve the performance of thermoelectric materials. Here, we theoretically predict that Ag-Mg antisite defects as shallow acceptors can be more stable than other intrinsic defects under Mg-poor‒Ag/Sb-rich co...
