Potential Thermoelectric Performance from Optimization of Hole-Doped Bi_{2}Se_{3}
We present an analysis of the potential thermoelectric performance of hole-doped Bi_{2}Se_{3}, which is commonly considered to show inferior room temperature performance when compared to Bi_{2}Te_{3}. We find that if the lattice thermal conductivity can be reduced by nanostructuring techniques (as h...
