Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied thermoelectric properties of candidate Dirac electron systems with Ca 3d electrons, which are expected to show high thermoelectric performances. We prepared polycrystalline samples of antiperovskite oxide Ca3XO (X = Sn, Pb) and whisker crystals of one-dimensional Dirac electron system M4SiTe4 (M = Ta, Nb) and discovered that Ca3SnO and M4SiTe4 show high thermoelectric performances. Ternary Ca pnictides CaAgP and CaAgAs are found to be promising candidates to realize ideal line-node Dirac semimetals.
