Effects of Sn+ Ion Implantation and Post-Implantation Annealing on the Thermoelectric Properties of n-Type PbTe in FGM Design
Year: 1999
Type: article
Abstract: Sn . ions were implanted into n-type lead telluride with doses of 6×10 16 and 1×10 17 ions/cm 2 at an energy of 200 KeV. The thermoelectric properties of temperature dependence of the implanted and the unimplanted samples after annealing were investigated. Thermoelectric figure of merit was calculated using the measured data. It has been found that Sn' ion implantation can form a two layered FGM with stepwise carrier concentration, and modify the thermoelectric properties of n-type PbTe.
