Thermoelectric conversion is a technology capable of mutually converting thermal and electrical energy. It holds significant promise from an environmental protection perspective, as it can utilize waste heat to generate clean energy. For power generation purposes, high performance is required of thermoelectric materials, making the improvement of conversion efficiency a top priority.
In this study, we focused on transition metal dichalcogenides containing heavy elements, which are anticipated to exhibit high thermoelectric performance. Specifically, we attempted to synthesize WTe2 and WTe1.6Se0.4 nanowires, and subsequently evaluated their performance.
