The effect of grain size on the thermoelectric properties of n-type nanocrystalline bismuth-
telluride based thin films is investigated. We prepare the nanocrystalline thin films with …

A porous thin film of Bi 0.4 Te 3 Sb 1.6 with an enhanced figure of merit of 1.8 at room
temperature was fabricated by flash evaporation on an alumina substrate containing …

Here, we investigate the combined effect of the nanoscale crystal grains and porosity on the
lattice thermal conductivity of bismuth-telluride-based bulk alloys using both experimental …

n-type and p-type thermoelectric thin films have been deposited by direct current magnetron
sputtering from n-type Bi2Te2. 7Se0. 3 and p-type Bi0. 5Sb1. 5Te3 targets on glass and …

Abstract Antimony telluride (Sb 2 Te 3) thin films were deposited on silicon substrates at
room temperature (300 K) by radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. The effects of …

We investigated the effects of strain and grain size on the thermal transport of highly-
oriented nanocrystalline bismuth antimony telluride thin films using both experimental …

Recently, significant progress has been made in increasing the figure-of-merit (ZT) of
various nanostructured materials, including thin-film and quantum dot superlattice structures …

We investigated the effects of homogeneous electron beam (EB) irradiation and thermal
annealing treatments on the structural, optical, and transport properties of bismuth telluride …

Improved thermoelectric performance of highly-oriented nanocrystalline bismuth antimony
telluride thin films is described. The thin films are deposited by a flash evaporation method …

Abstract N-type Bi–Te/Bi–Se multilayer thin films were prepared by dual-bath
electrodeposition. We varied the number of layers from 2 to 10 while the total film thickness …
