| Zusammenfassung: | A custom p-type thermoelectric material, from the University of Houston, has shown >10% conversion efficiency at a temperature difference of 475K. It is a high-entropy 'Zintl' alloy of the form YbxCa1-xMgyZn2-ySb2, for which the team devised a way to calculate the exact proportions by aiming for band convergence. |
