We investigate the thermoelectric properties of -FeSi2 using first principles electronic structure and Boltzmann trans- port calculations. We report a high thermopower for both p- and n-type -FeSi2 over a wide range of carrier concentra- tion and in addition find the performance for n-type to be higher than for the p-type. Our results indicate that, depending upon temperature, a doping level of 3 1020 - 2 1021 cm 3 may optimize the thermoelectric performance.
