Rapid Solidification Brings Ultralow Thermal Conductivity and Superior Thermoelectric Performance for Intrinsic GeTe Alloy
ABSTRACT Intrinsic GeTe suffers from excessively high carrier concentrations caused by Ge vacancies and limitations in phase regulation, which constrain further enhancement of its thermoelectric performance. In this work, rapid solidification with glass fluxing techniques is employed to achieve a large undercooling of...
