Crystal Chemistry and Thermoelectric Properties of Type-I Clathrate Ba8Ni∼3.8SixGe42.2−x (x = 0, 10, 20, 42.2)

Crystal Chemistry and Thermoelectric Properties of Type-I Clathrate Ba8Ni∼3.8SixGe42.2−x (x = 0, 10, 20, 42.2)

Thermoelectric materials are actively considered for waste heat recovery applications. To improve the heat to electricity conversion efficiency, fundamental understanding on composition, crystal structure, and interrelation with the thermoelectric properties is necessary. Here, we report the chemica...
