Probing of Strategic Disorder to Tune Thermoelectric Properties in Sb, Zn Co-doped Mg2Si0.3Sn0.7 through Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy

Abstract Defect engineering in thermoelectric materials is a key approach for controlling lattice vibrations. Introducing defects in the lattice brings disorder, which facilitates scattering of phonons and suppresses heat transport. Although this can be beneficial for enhancing t...
