Abstract:Alloying is a common technique to optimize the functional properties of materials for thermoelectrics, photovoltaics, energy storage etc. Designing thermoelectric (TE) alloys is especially challenging because it is a multi-property optimization problem, where the properties that contribute to high TE performance are interdependent. In this work, we develop a computational framework that combines first-principles calculations with alloy and point defect modeling to identify alloy compositions that optimize the … Show more
