High Thermoelectric Figure of Merit Achieved in Cu2S1–xTex Alloys Synthesized by Mechanical Alloying and Spark Plasma Sintering

Chalcogenides have been considered as promising thermoelectric materials because of their low cost, nontoxicity, and environmental benignity. In this work, we synthesized a series of Cu 2 S 1– x Te x (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) alloys by a facile, rapid method of mechanical alloying combined with spark plasma sinte... View More
