Effective mass and Fermi surface complexity factor from ab initio band structure calculations

Electronic materials: In search of the right mass A simple method for determining a material’s thermoelectric properties is developed by researchers in the United States and Belgium. Jeffrey Snyder from Northwestern University and his co-workers’ model could simplify the search for materials that ef...
