Abstract

We study type I clathrate Ba<sub>8</sub>Cu<sub>5.1</sub>Ge<sub>40.2</sub>Sn<sub>0.7</sub> single crystals (space group <italic>Pm</italic>3̄<italic>n</italic>, no. 223, <italic>a</italic> = 10.7151(3)) grown using a Sn flux method, and the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT of single crystals reaches a maximum value of 0.6 at 773 K.
