Restructure single parabolic band(SPB) model for quick analysis in thermoelectricity

'SPB Calculation And Plot.xltx' is an efficient tool to implement SPB analysis. The Seebeck coefficient, carrier consideration and mobility are required as inputs. Effective mass m*, intrinsic carrier mobility μ₀, weighted carrier mobility μ_w, optimal carrier concentration n_opt and corresponding maximum power factor PF_opt can be evaluated under SPB framework.(Ref: Zhu, J., Zhang, X., Guo, M. et al.

Key words: thermoelectric, single parabolic band(SPB) model, Boltzmann transport equation(BTE)
