Effect of a self-assembled 3D flower-like hierarchical architecture on the thermoelectric properties of Ag-doped BiS.

Powder samples of BiS and Ag-doped BiS compounds were successfully synthesized the solvothermal method. The synthesized powders were consolidated using the cold-press method and annealed at 300 °C for 3 h. The cross-sections of the consolidated samples exhibited a densely packed hierarchical architecture micro-flower-like morphology.

Multiple approaches of band engineering and mass fluctuation of solution-processed n-type Re-doped MoS nanosheets for enhanced thermoelectric power factor.

The thermoelectric (TE) performance of Molybdenum disulpide (MoS) can be improved by the incorporation of nanomaterials. MoS has been reported as promising thermoelectric materials due to their large bandgap and low thermal conductivity. In the present work, n-type MoS was successfully synthesized by facile hydrothermal route with an excellent thermoelectric performance by introducing rhenium (Re) dopant.

Investigation of non-covalent interactions in Polypyrrole/Polyaniline/Carbon black ternary complex for enhanced thermoelectric properties via interfacial carrier scattering and π-π stacking.

The thermoelectric (TE) performance of conducting polymers can be improved by the incorporation of carbon nanomaterials. In this work, the impact of carbon black (CB) on polypyrrole (PPy) and polypyrrole/polyaniline (PPy/PANI) binary composite have been investigated. Herein, PPy/PANI binary composite was initially prepared through chemical oxidative polymerization and then solution mixed with CB to form PPy/PANI/CB ternary nanocomposite.
