High Seebeck Coefficient BiSbTe Nanowires

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: Bismuth antimony telluride (BiSbTe) nanowires were electrodeposited at constant potentials into polycarbonate templates from a tartaric–nitric acid electrolyte. Optimum deposition potentials were obtained from polarization and compositional analysis. X-ray diffraction analysis showed a preferential (015) orientation for the nanowires. The nanowire sample deposited at −150 mV showed a high Seebeck coefficient of .
