Heat treatment restores thermoelectric performance having deteriorated under irradiation by neutrons. Discovery suggests SiGe materials used in radioisotope thermoelectric generators and other applications up to fluences of 5.4 X 10(to the 19th power)cm(to the negative 2nd power) and operating at temperatures of 600 to 1,000 degrees C.
