2. Nanostructured thermoelectric materials

2.1 Thermal conductivity and nanostructuring

In solids, heat is transported by phonon conduction through the lattice, $κ_{l}$ , and by electrons, κ _e . The lattice contribution can be modified independently of the electron term and is expressed by the Debye model:

κ_{l} = \frac{1}{3} C_{V} v_{s} λ_{ph} = \frac{1}{3} C_{V} v_{s}^{2} τ_{ph}
