Realizing p-type NbCoSn half-Heusler compounds with enhanced thermoelectric performance via Sc substitution

N-type half-Heusler NbCoSn is a promising thermoelectric material due to favourable electronic properties. It has attracted much attention for thermoelectric applications while the desired p-type NbCoSn counterpart shows poor thermoelectric performance. In this work, p-type NbCoSn has been obtained...
