A researcher who studies materials and devices using the thermoelectric effect. With Eric S. Toberer, he reviewed strategies for improving the thermoelectric figure of merit by controlling carrier concentration and reducing thermal conductivity. The central challenge is coupled transport: improving one property can worsen another. The material therefore has to be designed as a complete heat-and-charge transport system.[ref]
