Thermoelectric (TE) materials convert heat energy directly into electricity, and introducing new materials with high conversion efficiency is a great challenge because of the rare combination of interdependent electrical and thermal transport properties required to be present in a single material. The TE efficiency is defined by the figure of merit ZT=(S2Ï ) T/κ, where S is the Seebeck coefficient, Ï is the electrical conductivity, κ is the total thermal conductivity, and T is the absolute temperature. A new pâ type thermoelectric material, CsAg5Te3, is presented that exhibits ultralow lattice thermal conductivity (ca. 0.18â Wmâ 1â Kâ 1) and a high figure of merit of about 1.5 at 727â K. The lattice thermal conductivity is the lowe...
