The Case Studies of PtX2 (X = As, P) as High Thermo-power Materials

Adewumi I. Popoola & Adebayo T. Adepoju · Physical Science International Journal · 2021

For thermoelectric applications, semiconductors are generally better than metals and insulators. PtAs2 and PtP2 are indirect energy gap semiconductors that have been predicted with high thermo-powers (PtP2 having higher thermopower than PtAs2). The crystal structure and the elect...
