Abstract We propose a method of improving the thermoelectric properties of graphene using defect engineering through plasma irradiation and atomic layer deposition (ALD). We intentionally created atomic blemishes in graphene by oxygen plasma treatment and subsequently healed the atomistically defective places using Pt-ALD. After healing, the thermal conductivity of the initially defective graphene increased slightly, while the electrical conductivity and the square of the Seebeck coefficient increased pronouncedly. The thermoelectric figure of merit of the Pt-ALD treated graphene was measured to be over 4.8 times higher than the values reported in the literature. We expect that our study could provide a useful guideline for the development of graphene-based thermoelectric devices.

Abstract Thermoelectric performance of MoSi2As4 monolayer is investigated using density functional theory combined with Boltzmann transport theoy. The maximal power factors of n- and p-type by PBE (HSE06) functional are 7.73 (48.31) and 32.84 (30.50) mW m-1 K-2 at the temperature of 1200 K, respectively. The lattice thermal conductivity is less than 30 W m-1 K-1 above 800 K. The thermoelectric figure of merit can reach 0.33 (0.58) and 0.90 (0.81) using PBE (HSE06) functional for n- and p-type under appropriate carrier concentration at 1200K, respectively. Thus, the p-type MoSi2As4 monolayer is predicted to be a potential candidate for high-temperature thermoelectric applications.

The results of studying the temperature dependences of electrical conductivity, thermoelectric coefficient, Hall mobility of charge carriers, total and electronic thermal conductivity, as well as phonon thermal resistance of alloys of (CuInSe2)1-x(In2Te3)x solid solutions at x=0.005 and 0.0075 are presented. The values ​​of these parameters for certain temperatures were used to calculate the values ​​of the thermoelectric figure of merit of the indicated compositions. It turned out that as the temperature rises, the thermoelectric figure of merit tends to grow strongly, from which it can be concluded that these materials can be used in the manufacture of thermoelements.

In this work, we study the properties of GeTe -based alloys, doped with bismuth, with partial substitution of lead for germanium: Ge0.86Pb0.1Bi0.04Te. The aim of the study is to explore the possibility of increasing the thermoelectric efficiency of a compound by combining optimal doping and isovalent substitution to improve the electronic properties with a simultaneous decrease of the lattice thermal conductivity. We studied alloy samples prepared in two different research laboratories using similar, but not completely identical procedures. It is shown that the electronic (thermoelectric power and electrical conductivity) properties of the samples of the two groups are in good agreement with each other. The properties of alloys depend on the thermal history of the samples due to the presence at temperatures of 600–800 K of a phase transition from a low-temperature rhombohedral to a high-temperature cubic structural modification. The thermoelectric figure of merit of alloys reaches a maximum value of 1.5 at a temperature of about 750 K.

Abstract We report the thermal conductivity (κ) of perovskite Sr1−x(La0.5Na0.5)xTiO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) and the thermoelectric properties of Nb-doped samples for x = 0.1 and 0.2. The κ of the solid solution shows a distinct minimum near the cubic-tetragonal phase boundary at x = 0.2, where the value becomes close to the minimum theoretical κ. Nb doping to x = 0.2 retains the high power factor found in Nb-doped SrTiO3, but also raises the κ to result in a thermoelectric figure of merit of 0.24 at 773 K.
