The lattice thermal conductivity of a thermoelectric material can be significantly reduced at ordinary temperatures by boundary scattering but the beneficial effect on the figure of merit can sometimes be more than offset by boundary scattering of the charge carriers. Here we extend the previous the

Calculations are given to show that for low thermal conductivity materials the radiation losses at even moderate temperatures preclude the use of the Harman technique for measuring the thermoelectric figure of merit. Measurements on liquid T16~,S%,,. which has suitable thermoelectric properties, con
