Intrinsic mechanical behavior of MgAgSb thermoelectric material: An ab initio study

α-MgAgSb based thermoelectric (TE) device attracts much attention for its commercial application because it shows an extremely high conversion efficiency of ∼8.5% under a temperature difference of 225 K. However, the mechanical behavior of α-MgAgSb is another serious consideration for its engineerin...
