Recent advances in silicon-based nanostructures for thermoelectric applications

In this work, implementations of silicon-based thermoelectric nanomaterials are reviewed. Approaches ranging from nanostructured bulk - i.e., macroscopic materials presenting nanoscale features - to more complex low-dimensional materials are covered. These implementations take advantage of different...
