NiVSb
metal· NiVSb
NiVSb is a ternary intermetallic compound composed of nickel, vanadium, and antimony, belonging to the family of half-Heusler alloys. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for thermoelectric applications due to its favorable electronic band structure and potential for efficient heat-to-electricity conversion. NiVSb and related half-Heusler compounds are notable alternatives to traditional thermoelectric materials because they combine good electrical conductivity with reduced thermal conductivity, making them candidates for waste heat recovery in automotive and industrial applications where cost and earth-abundance considerations favor them over bismuth telluride or skutterudites.
