Doping studies of n-type CsBi4Te6 thermoelectric materials
(Affiliation: Dept of Electrical and Computer Eng., Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Lane, M.A.Dept of Electrical and Computer Eng., Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208, United States, 2001)We have previously reported the successful p-type doping of CsBi4Te6 which had a high figure of merit at temperatures below 300 K. In this study, several dopants were explored to make n-type CsBi4Te6. A program of measurements ...

Electronic Structure and Thermoelectric Properties of Pseudoquaternary Mg2Si1-x-ySnxGey-Based Materials
(2014)A theoretical study is presented on complex pseudoternary Bi-doped Mg2Si1-x-ySnxGey materials, which have recently been revealed to reach high thermoelectric figures of merit (ZT) of ∼1.4. Morphological characterization ...

Highly anisotropic crystal growth and thermoelectric properties of K 2Bi 8-xSb xSe 13 solid solutions: Band gap anomaly at low x
(2002)The thermoelectric properties of solid solutions of the type β-K 2Bi 8-xSb xSe 13 (0<x<8) were studied with respect to thermal behavior, band gap variation, and charge transport properties as a function of x. At x values ...

Thermoelectric properties of Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition
(2015)We report on the pulsed laser deposition of p-type Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 thin films onto fused silica substrates by ablation of dense targets of Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 with an excess of 1 wt% Te. We investigated the effect of film thickness, ...
