Many of the advances in high-performance thermoelectric materials can be related to fundamental chemical-bonding principles. Application of concepts including bonding models, lone pairs, bonding heterogeneity, multi-centre bonding and polarizability to the development of advanced thermoelectric materials are discussed here.
