In article number 1807235 , Li Huang, Weishu Liu, and co‐workers report a new promising candidate n‐type room temperature thermoelectric material Mg 3+δ Sb x Bi 2+ x . This new material exhibits a comparable thermoelectric performance and start‐of‐the‐art Bi 2 Te 3− x Se x materials in the temperature range of 50–250 °C. Moreover, the superior mechanical toughness makes it a promising substitute for current commercial n‐type Bi 2 Te 3− x Se x materials for room temperature application.
