      Fabrication of nanocrystalline Mg 2Si via ball milling process: Structural studies 

      Ioannou, M.; Hatzikraniotis, E.; Lioutas, C.; Hassapis, T.; Altantzis, T.; Paraskevopoulos, K. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora (2012)
      In this work, nanocrystalline Mg 2Si material was fabricated via wet ball milling process using n-hexane as process control agent. Milling parameters, with emphasis on milling time and ball size, and conditions were studied ...

      Initial assessment of the thermoelectric properties for the mixed system K2-xRbxBi8Se13 

      Ireland, J. R.; Kyratsi, Theodora; Kanatzidis, M. G.; Kannewurf, C. R. (Affiliation: Dept. of Elec. and Comp. Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208-3118, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Ireland, J.R.Dept. of Elec. and Comp. Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208-3118, United States, 2002)
      In previous studies we have investigated the thermoelectric properties of undoped and doped compositions of β-K2Bi8Se13. The attempt to substitute Rb for K resulted in a different structure type, but with potentially useful ...

      Structural features of ball-milled nanostructured K2Bi 8Se13 thermoelectric material 

      Lioutas, C. B.; Hatzikraniotis, E.; Ioannou, M.; Paraskevopoulos, K. M.; Kyratsi, Theodora (2011)
      In this work, K2Bi8Se13 material was ball-milled in order to develop nanostructures through the modification of structural features. Structural changes during ball-milling were followed by powder X-ray diffraction measurements, ...
