High-Quality SnSe 2 Single Crystals: Electronic and Thermoelectric Properties

In this work, high-quality SnSe 2 single crystals were successfully synthesized using a temperature gradient method. N-type characteristics and strong anisotropic transport properties of SnSe 2 single crystals were exhibited between the ab plane and the c-axis. At 673 K, the power factor (PF) value along the ab plane is 3.43 μW cm -1 K -2 , while it is 0.92 μW cm -1 K -2 along the c-axis. The ratio between thermal conductivities along the ab plane (κ ab ) and c-axis (κ c ) is on the order of 7.6 at 300 K, while this value is about 5.6 at 673 K. The thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) in the c-axis (0.15) is higher than that (0.1) along the ab plane, according to the ultralow out-of-plane thermal conductivity. The electronic band structure results, which were examined by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) predicted the potential of improving the thermoelectric performance of SnSe 2 single crystals by electron doping.
