Solid solution series of the type K 2Bi 8-xSb xSe 13, K 2-xRb xBi 8Se 13 as well as K 2B 18Se 13-xS x were prepared and the distribution of the atoms (Bi/Sb, K/Rb and Se/S) on different crystallographic sites, the band ...
Characterisation and tribological evaluation of nitrogen-containing molybdenum-copper PVD metallic nanocomposite films
(2005)
This paper reports on the structural, mechanical and tribological properties of molybdenum-copper nanocomposite films 'doped' with small amounts of nitrogen, which contain either no nitride phase (i.e. the nitrogen is held ...
Initial assessment of the thermoelectric properties for the mixed system K2-xRbxBi8Se13
(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 ...
Thermoelectric properties of pressed pellets and pressureless sintering in the K2Bi8Se13-xSx system
(Affiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, School of Engineering, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, CyprusAffiliation: Department of Chemistry, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Tsiappos, A.Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, School of Engineering, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus, 2006)
The solid solutions of ß-K2Bi8Se13 are an interesting series of materials for thermoelectric investigations because they possess very low thermal conductivity and relatively high power factor. Moreover, the sulfur-substituted ...
