Exploring electrical property improvement for thermoelectric sulfides
-
Abstract
Metal sulfides have been the subject of extensive research as a promising candidate in the study of thermoelectric energy transfer due to their eco-friendly abundance and similarities in chemical and structural properties with tellurides and selenides. Their intrinsically low thermal conductivity decouples the intercorrelated thermoelectric parameters that comprise the figure merit of

Fu-Hua Sun is currently an associate professor of Institute for Advanced Materials at Hubei Normal University, China. He received his Ph.D. degree from Tsinghua University in 2019. He worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at Wuhan University of Technology (2020-2022). His current research focuses on the synthesis of nano-bulk sulfur-based materials and their applications in thermoelectric. 
Hezhang Li received his Ph.D. degree from Tohoku University, Japan in 2022 and then worked in National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Japan as a postdoc researcher from April, 2022 to February 2023. He is now a postdoctoral researcher at Tsinghua University, China. His research focuses on the calculation of electronic structure, crystal structure analysis and the transport properties of Heusler alloys and other thermoelectric materials. -
