High thermoelectric figure of merit and nanostructuring in bulk p-type Na1-xPbmSbyTem+2.
Pierre F. P. Poudeu,Jonathan D'Angelo,Adam Downey,Jarrod Short,Timothy P. Hogan,Mercouri G. Kanatzidis +5 more
TL;DR: It is reported that the Ag-free system Na1 xPbmSbyTem+2, with appropriate combinations of m, y, and x, achieves record-high ZT values for a p-type bulk thermoelectric material, and shows that the high performance of these materials derives mainly from a low thermal conductivity.
Valence Band Modification and High Thermoelectric Performance in SnTe Heavily Alloyed with MnTe
Gangjian Tan,Fengyuan Shi,Shiqiang Hao,Hang Chi,Trevor P. Bailey,Li-Dong Zhao,Ctirad Uher,Chris Wolverton,Vinayak P. Dravid,Mercouri G. Kanatzidis,Mercouri G. Kanatzidis +10 more
TL;DR: A high solubility limit of >9 mol% for MnTe alloying in SnTe is demonstrated, and the room-temperature Seebeck coefficients of Mn-doped SnTe are significantly higher than those predicted by theoretical Pisarenko plots for pure SnTe, indicating a modified band structure.

Nucleation-controlled growth of superior lead-free perovskite Cs3Bi2I9 single-crystals for high-performance X-ray detection.
Yunxia Zhang,Yunxia Zhang,Yunxia Zhang,Yucheng Liu,Yucheng Liu,Zhuo Xu,Haochen Ye,Zhou Yang,Jiaxue You,Ming Liu,Yihui He,Mercouri G. Kanatzidis,Shengzhong Frank Liu,Shengzhong Frank Liu,Shengzhong Frank Liu +14 more
TL;DR: This work develops a nucleation-controlled solution method to grow large size high-quality Cs3Bi2I9 perovskite single crystals (PSCs) for high performance X-ray detection and imaging devices that can operate at 100 °C.
Structural Diversity in White-Light-Emitting Hybrid Lead Bromide Perovskites
Lingling Mao,Peijun Guo,Mikael Kepenekian,Ido Hadar,Claudine Katan,Jacky Even,Richard D. Schaller,Constantinos C. Stoumpos,Mercouri G. Kanatzidis +8 more
TL;DR: A series of new structurally diverse hybrid lead bromide perovskites that have broad-band emission at room temperature and the highest photoluminescence quantum yield is reported, owing to its unique structure that allows efficient charge carrier relaxation and light emission.
High thermoelectric performance via hierarchical compositionally alloyed nanostructures
Li-Dong Zhao,Shiqiang Hao,Shih Han Lo,Chun I. Wu,Xiaoyuan Zhou,Yeseul Lee,Hao Li,Kanishka Biswas,Timothy P. Hogan,Ctirad Uher,Chris Wolverton,Vinayak P. Dravid,Mercouri G. Kanatzidis +12 more
TL;DR: A design strategy is demonstrated which provides for simultaneous improvement of electrical and thermal properties of p-type PbSe and leads to ZT ~ 1.6 at 923 K, the highest ever reported for a tellurium-free chalcogenide.
