Research:
Systematically investigate the high-pressure behavior(<10GPa) of the thermoelectric material AgSbTe2, with a specific focus on its thermoelectric response to doping with alkali metals (Sodium or Potassium). This study aims to unravel the synergistic effects of elevated pressure and alkali metal doping on the material’s structural, electronic, and thermoelectric properties. The exploration of these interactions is driven by the potential to enhance the thermoelectric performance of AgSbTe2 for applications in high-pressure environments and advanced energy conversion technologies.
