Established synthesis–composition–property relationship proving a narrow homogeneity range while revealing that MgAgSb functional properties are governed by secondary phases.
1. Study of the Ag contacted n-type Mg2X (X = Si, Sn) TE materials. 2. Successful correlation of the observed phases at the n-Mg2X/Ag interconnection zones with the thermodynamically favorable phases. 3. Calculation of the electrical contact resistances.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
