Optimizing the Dopant and Carrier Concentration of Ca(5)Al(2)Sb(6) for High Thermoelectric Efficiency

The effects of doping on the transport properties of Ca(5)Al(2)Sb(6) are investigated using first-principles electronic structure methods and Boltzmann transport theory. The calculated results show that a maximum ZT value of 1.45 is achieved with an optimum carrier concentration at 1000 K. However,...
