We have measured thermoelectric properties of Ta2PdX6 (X=S, Se) around room temperature using single crystal samples. We find that the power factor of Ta2PdX6 is relatively high from middle-low to room temperatures, and notably Ta2PdSe6 shows the largest power factor among thermoelectric materials with an electrical conductivity of 10-2 {Omega}cm at 300 K. Ta2PdS6 will be a possible candidate for a Peltier cooling material if the lattice thermal conductivity is reduced by chemical substitution.

High mobility phonon-glass semimetal $CuAgSe$ has shown promise in recent years as a potential low-temperature thermoelectric material. It exhibits reasonably strong thermoelectric performance as well as an extremely high carrier mobility, both of wh
ich are enhanced when the material is doped with Ni at the Cu sites. The exact mechanism by which these enhancements result; however, is unclear. In order to further investigate the effects of chemical substitution on the materials thermoelectric properties, we have prepared and performed various measurements on $CuAgSe$ samples doped with Co and Cr according to the following compositional formulas: $Cu_{1-x}Co_{x}AgSe$ $(x=0.02, 0.05, 0.10)$ and $Cu_{1-x}Cr_{x}AgSe$ $(x=0.02, 0.05)$. Measurements of temperature and magnetic field dependent thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, and Seebeck coefficient will be discussed. Our results reveal a remarkable sensitivity of $CuAgSe$s thermoelectric properties to chemical doping in general as well as a particular sensitivity to specific dopants. This demonstrated tunability of $CuAgSe$s various properties furthers the case that high mobility phonon glass-semimetals are strong candidates for potential low temperature thermoelectric applications.
We describe measurements of 100 nK temperature oscillations at room temperature, driven at the complex interface between p-doped Germanium, a nm size metal layer, and an electrolyte. We show that heat is deposited at this interface by thermoelectric
effects, however the precise microscopic mechanism remains to be established. The temperature measurement is accomplished by observing the modulation of black body radiation from the interface. We argue that this geometry offers a method to study molecular scale dissipation phenomena. The Debye layer on the electrolyte side of the interface controls much of the dynamics. Interpreting the measurements from first principles, we show that in this geometry the Debye layer behaves like a low frequency transmission line.
We report magnetic, dielectric and magnetodielectric responses of pure monoclinic bulk phase of partially-disordered La2NiMnO6, exhibiting a spectrum of unusual properties and establish that this system intrinsically is a true multiglass with a large
magnetodielectric coupling (8-20%) over a wide range of temperatures (150 - 300 K). Specifically, our results establish a unique way to obtain colossal magnetodielectricity, independent of any striction effects, by engineering the asymmetric hopping contribution to the dielectric constant via the tuning of the relative spin orientations between neighboring magnetic ions in a transition metal oxide system. We discuss the role of anti-site (Ni-Mn) disorder in emergence of these unusual properties.
Modulation of the grain boundary properties in thermoelectric materials that have thermally activated electrical conductivity is crucial in order to achieve high performance at low temperatures. In this work, we show directly that the modulation of t
he potential barrier at the grain boundaries in perovskite SrTiO3 changes the low-temperature dependency of the bulk materials electrical conductivity. By sintering samples in a reducing environment of increasing strength, we produced La0.08Sr0.9TiO3 (LSTO) ceramics that gradually change their electrical conductivity behavior from thermally activated to single-crystal-like, with only minor variations in the Seebeck coefficient. Imaging of the surface potential by Kelvin probe force microscopy found lower potential barriers at the grain boundaries in the LSTO samples that had been processed in the more reducing environments. A theoretical model using the band offset at the grain boundary to represent the potential barrier agreed well with the measured grain boundary potential dependency of conductivity. The present work showed an order of magnitude enhancement in electrical conductivity (from 85 to 1287 S cm-1) and power factor (from 143 to 1745 {mu}W m-1 K-2) at 330 K by this modulation of charge transport at grain boundaries. This significant reduction in the impact of grain boundaries on charge transport in SrTiO3 provides an opportunity to achieve the ultimate phonon glass electron crystal by appropriate experimental design and processing.
Dielectric resonators are key components for many microwave and millimetre wave applications, including high-Q filters and frequency-determining elements for precision frequency synthesis. These often depend on the quality of the dielectric material.
The commonly used material for building the best cryogenic microwave oscillators is sapphire. However sapphire is becoming a limiting factor for higher frequencies design. It is then important to find new candidates that can fulfil the requirements for millimetre wave low noise oscillators at room and cryogenic temperatures. These clocks are used as a reference in many fields, like modern telecommunication systems, radio astronomy (VLBI), and precision measurements at the quantum limit. High-resolution measurements were made of the temperature-dependence of the electromagnetic properties of a polycrystalline diamond disk at temperatures between 35 K and 330 K at microwave to sub-millimetre wave frequencies. The cryogenic measurements were made using a TE01{delta} dielectric mode resonator placed inside a vacuum chamber connected to a single-stage pulse-tube cryocooler. The high frequency characterization was performed at room temperature using a combination of a quasi-optical two-lens transmission setup, a Fabry-Perot cavity and a whispering gallery mode resonator excited with waveguides. Our CVD diamond sample exhibits a decreasing loss tangent with increasing frequencies. We compare the results with well known crystals. This comparison makes clear that polycrystalline diamond could be an important material to generate stable frequencies at millimetre waves.
