However, to achieve an economic impact, the polycrystalline counterpart needs to replicate the performance of the single crystal. Herein, we optimize the thermoelectric performance of polycrystalline SnSe produced by consolidating solution-processed and surface-engineered SnSe particles. In particular, the SnSe particles are coated with CdSe molecular complexes that crystallize during the sintering process, forming CdSe nanoparticles. The presence of CdSe nanoparticles inhibits SnSe grain growth during the consolidation step due to Zener pinning, yielding a material with a high density of grain boundaries. Moreover, the resulting SnSe–CdSe nanocomposites present a large number of defects at different length scales, which significantly reduce the thermal conductivity. The produced SnSe–CdSe nanocomposites exhibit thermoelectric figures of merit up to 2.2 at 786 K, which is among the highest reported for solution-processed SnSe.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","date_published":"2022-01-25T00:00:00Z","issue":"1","publisher":"American Chemical Society ","scopus_import":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","oa":1,"date_created":"2021-09-24T07:55:12Z","user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Defect engineering in solution-processed polycrystalline SnSe leads to high thermoelectric performance","status":"public","related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","relation":"dissertation_contains","id":"12885"}]}}
