1 Introduction Thermoelectric technology, enabling direct conversion between electricity and heat, provides a sustainable method to alleviate the energy crisis.[1-3] The thermoelectric conversion efficiency (η) depends on the dimensionless figure-of-merit zT, defined as zT = S2σT/(κl+κe), where S, σ, T, κl, and κe are the Seebeck coefficient, the electrical conductivity, the absolute temperature, the lattice thermal conductivity, and the electrical thermal conductivity, respectively.[4-6] As...
