The Limits of Thermoelectric Performance with a Bounded Transport Distribution
Jesse Maassen
With the goal of maximizing the thermoelectric (TE) figure of merit , Mahan and Sofo [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 93, 7436 (1996)] found that the optimal transport distributi…
Thermoelectric calculations of ring-shaped bands in two-dimensional BiTe, BiSe and SbTe: a comparison of simple scattering approximations
Cameron Rudderham, Jesse Maassen
Materials with ring-shaped electronic bands are promising thermoelectric candidates, since their unusual dispersion shape is predicted to give large power factors. While previous c…
Analysis of simple scattering models on the thermoelectric performance of analytical electron dispersions
Cameron Rudderham, Jesse Maassen
Recent first-principles electron-phonon scattering calculations of heavily-doped semiconductors suggest that a simple DOS scattering model, wherein the electronic scattering rates…
Unusual thermoelectric transport anisotropy in quasi-2D, rhombohedral GeTe
Vahid Askarpour, Jesse Maassen
In this study, we calculate the =300 K scattering and thermoelectric transport properties of rhombohedral GeTe using first-principles modeling. The room-temperature phase of GeT…
Phonon transport across a Si-Ge interface: the role of inelastic bulk scattering
Jesse Maassen, Vahid Askarpour
Understanding phonon transport across heterojunctions is important to achieve a wide range of thermal transport properties. Using the McKelvey-Shockley flux method with first-princ…
LanTraP: A code for calculating thermoelectric transport properties with the Landauer formalism
Xufeng Wang, Evan Witkoske, Jesse Maassen +1
A code for calculating the semi-classical thermoelectric and electronic transport properties is described. It uses the Landauer transport theory, which is equivalent to the Boltzma…
