We present the results of density-functional theory and Boltzmann transport calculations suggesting that the commonly available and inexpensive material
SnS may show reasonable thermoelectric performance at temperatures suitable for exhaust waste-heat recovery, if the material can be heavily
p-doped and if the mobility is not greatly degraded by high doping.
