Solid-state synthesis and thermoelectric properties of Sb-doped Mg 2Si materials
Ioannou, M.; Polymeris, G.; Hatzikraniotis, E.; Khan, A. U.; Paraskevopoulos, K. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora (2013)Sb-doped magnesium silicide compounds have been prepared through ball milling and solid-state reaction. Materials produced were near-stoichiometric. The structural modifications have been studied with powder x-ray diffraction. ...
