Subamorphous thermal conductivity of crystalline half-Heusler superlattices
Emigdio Chavez-Angel, Niklas Reuter, Paulina Komar +4
The quest to improve the thermoelectric figure of merit has mainly followed the roadmap of lowering the thermal conductivity while keeping unaltered the power factor of the materia…

Alloy-like behaviour of the thermal conductivity of non-symmetric superlattices
Emigdio Chavez-Angel, Paulina Komar, Gerhard Jakob
In this work, we show a phenomenological alloy-like fit of the thermal conductivity of (A)d1:(B)d2 superlattices with d1 /= d2, i.e. non-symmetric structure. The presented method i…
