Template Synthesis of Bismuth Telluride Nanowires

Year: 1999

Type: article

Abstract: Thermoelectric materials have the ability to convert heat to electricity and are currently used in Peltier cooling devices. Here is reported the combination of electrodeposition with template synthesis to prepare thermoelectric bismuth telluride nanowires within the pores of an alumina template membrane. The individual nanowires can be isolated by removal of the template membrane (see Figure).
