A gate is usually used to controllably tune the carrier concentrations, further modulating the electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient to obtain the optimum thermoelectric figure of merit in two-dimensional materials. On the other hand, it is necessary to investigate how an electric field induced by a gate affects the electronic structures, further determining the thermoelectric properties.

This article reports the extraordinary thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) of NaBaBi: degenerate bands, instead of the valley degeneracy of Bi2Te3, highly non-parabolic bands, and low DOS near the Fermi level of NaBaBi lead to an extraordinary ZTisotropic ≈ 1.60 at 350 K.

[Formula: see text] ceramic samples have a structure similar to phonon glass electronic crystals, and their thermoelectric properties can be effectively adjusted through repeated grinding and sintering. The results show that multi-sintering can make their grain refined and increase their grain boundary, which will effectively increase density and phonon scattering. Finally, multi-sintering can reduce the resistivity and thermal conductivity, thus obviously improve thermoelectric figure of merit [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. The optimum [Formula: see text] value of 0.26 is achieved at 923 K by the third sintered sample.
