	abstract = {<p>Multielement alloying is an appealing approach for suppressing thermal conductivity of thermoelectric materials. In this study, we synthesized GeTe-based high-entropy alloys with notable (S, Se) substitution at Te sites and (Ag, Sb) at Ge sites. The Ge0.82Ag0.08Sb0.1S0.5Se0.1Te0.4 exhibits an extremely low thermal conductivity of~\~{}~0.66~W/m.K and a high Seebeck coefficient (\&gt;250~μV/K) over a temperature range of 150 {\textendash} 400~{\textdegree}C. The influence of lattice distortion on phase transformation and transport properties of Ge0.9-2xAg2xSb0.1S0.5Se0.1Te0.4 (x~=~0 {\textendash} 0.06) was investigated.</p>
