摘要

SnTe is renowned for its promise in advancing energy-related technologies based on thermoelectricity and for its topological crystalline insulator character. Here, we demonstrate that each Mn atom introduces ~4 μ_B (Bohr magneton) of magnetic moment to Sn_(1-x)Mn_xTe. The Curie temperature T_C reaches ~14 K for x= 0.12, as observed in the field dependent hysteresis of magnetization and the anomalous Hall effect. In accordance with a modified two-band electronic Kane model, the light L-valence-band and the heavy ∑-valence-band gradually converge in energy with increasing Mn concentration, leading to a decreasing ordinary Hall coefficient R_H and a favorably enhanced Seebeck coefficient S at the same time. With the thermal conductivity k lowered chiefly via point defects associated with the incorporation of Mn, the strategy of Mn doping also bodes well for efficient thermoelectric applications at elevated temperatures.
