Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: In the paper by K. Rajput and S. Vitta published in the present journal the synthesis and the thermoelectric properties of the dysprosium containing clathrate Dy 8 Al 16 Si 30 were reported. We prepared two samples following exactly to the technique described in the paper. Our XRD and SEM/EDX investigations do not confirm the presence of any amount of a Dy-containing clathrate phase in the sample.
