High Thermoelectric Performance Originating from the Grooved Bands in the ZrSe Monolayer.
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces
October 2018
Article Synopsis
- - Low-dimensional layered materials, like ZrSe monolayers, are gaining attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties and potential use in electronics.
- - The electronic transport properties of ZrSe are analyzed using first-principles methods, which include corrections for electron interactions and calculate carrier relaxation times through electron-phonon coupling.
- - The ZrSe monolayer shows a high power factor due to specific band structures and low thermal conductivity, allowing for a significant n-type ZT value of about 2.4 at 800 K, indicating strong thermoelectric performance.
