Synthesis of Bioactive Nickel Nanoparticles Using Bacterial Strains from an Antarctic Consortium.

Marine microorganisms have been demonstrated to be an important source for bioactive molecules. In this paper we report the synthesis of Ni nanoparticles (NiSNPs) used as reducing and capping agents for five bacterial strains isolated from an Antarctic marine consortium: sp. ef1, sp.

Enhancement of Thermoelectric Performance in Na-Doped PbSnTeSe S via Breaking the Inversion Symmetry, Band Convergence, and Nanostructuring by Multiple Elements Doping.

Topological insulators have attracted much interest in topological states of matter featuring unusual electrical conduction behaviors. It has been recently reported that a topological crystalline insulator could exhibit a high thermoelectric performance by breaking its crystal symmetry via chemical doping. Here, we investigate the multiple effects of Na, Se, and S alloying on thermoelectric properties of a topological crystalline insulator PbSnTe.

Dataset on the electronic and thermal transport properties of quaternary compounds of (PbTe)(PbSe)(PbS).

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "High thermoelectric performance in pseudo quaternary compounds of (PbTe) (PbSe)(PbS) by simultaneous band convergence and nano precipitation" (Ginting et al., 2017) [1]. We measured electrical and thermal transport properties such as temperature-dependent Hall carrier density , Hall mobility , thermal diffusivity , heat capacity , and power factor in (PbTe) (PbSe)(PbS) (=0.
