Abstract
AbstractSustainable energy sources and energy-harvesting technologies have been researched for decades. Thermoelectric conversion is currently one of the primary foci in this area. Thermoelectric research has been concentrated into two parts—(i) strategies to enhance the efficiency of existing thermoelectric materials and (ii) development of new materials with promising thermoelectric parameters. Although such strategies have led to the improvement of thermoelectric non-oxide-based materials, the limitations possessed by them does not allow to be used at high temperatures. Due to the same reason, oxide-based materials have gained much attention. Here, we discuss about the oxide thermoelectric materials in detail and the effect of texturization on their morphology and transport properties. There is a lot of scope available for such class of materials for high-temperature applications.
