This thesis focuses on chalcogenide compound quantum dots with special crystal structures and behaviors in an effort to achieve the synergistic optimization of electrical and thermal transport for high-efficiency thermoelectric materials. The controllability and large-scale synthesis of chalcogenide quantum dots are realized through simple colloid synthesis, and the synergistic optimization of the materials’ electrical and thermal transport properties is successfully achieved. Furthermore, the book explores the mechanism involved in the integration of high thermoelectric performance and reversible p-n semiconducting switching in bimetal chalcogenide semiconductors. As such, the thesis will be of interest to university researchers and graduate students in the materials science, chemistry and physics.

Seven chapters report current research into the phases and ions of a class of compounds that are electronically positioned between the intermetallic compounds and insulating valence compounds. They cover structure and bonding at the Zintl border, structural patterns of homo- and hetero-nuclear anions and related intermetallic compounds and concepts for interpreting them, the early p-block elements, polyanions in liquid ionic alloys, molecular transition metal complexes, transition metal compounds, and synthesizing and characterizing intermetallic materials using Zintl phases as precursors. An introduction surveys the life and work of German chemist Eduard Zintl (1898-1941). Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The chemistry and physics of group 14 elements such as silicon and germanium have been extensively studied, largely due to their fundamental importance in the development of semiconductor electronics. In addition, crystalline open-framework and nano-porous materials are attracting increasing attention for their potential technological applications. Inorganic open-framework materials comprised of group 14 elements crystallizing in crystal structures known as clathrates are of particular interest. These materials correspond to expanded forms, and in some cases metastable allotropes, of silicon, germanium and tin. The novel crystal structures these materials possess are intimately related to the unique physical properties they exhibit. Just as interesting as the structure and properties group 14 clathrates display is the diverse range of synthetic techniques developed to synthesize and grow single crystals of these materials. This volume will encompass many of these aspects and describe their potential for important technological applications.
