Electronic structure and thermoelectric properties of CoTiSi half-Heusler alloy: Doping overtones by A. Shukla, Sadhana Matth, Raghavendra Pal, S. S. A. Warsi, Himanshu Pandey

“…Our approach begins with thorough structural optimization to determine the equilibrium lattice parameter and the atomic positions of the constituent elements within the unit cell of CoTiSi. Following this, we analyze the thermal transport properties of the alloy under the constant relaxation time approximation, which allows us to gain insights into its thermoelectric performance. …”
