Synergistic optimization of electrical and thermal transport in n-type Bi-doped PbTe by introducing coherent nanophase Cu1.75Te

Based on the calculated results of band structures and density of states, Bi doping is used to adjust its carrier concentration in order to obtain n-type PbTe materials with high power factor. Then, coherent nanophase Cu1.75Te is in situ formed in the n-type PbTe matrix, which can simultaneously opt...
