Enhancement of ZT in BiSbTe Thin Film through Lattice Orientation Management.

Thermoelectric power can convert heat and electricity directly and reversibly. Low-dimensional thermoelectric materials, particularly thin films, have been considered a breakthrough for separating electronic and thermal transport relationships. In this study, a series of BiSbTe thin films with thicknesses of 0.

Tailoring InSb Nanowires for High Thermoelectric Performance Using AAO Template-Assisted Die Casting Process.

Herein, we demonstrate a facile technique for the fabrication of one-dimensional indium antimonide (InSb) nanowires using anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) template-assisted vacuum die-casting method. The filling mechanism of the vacuum die-casting process is investigated on varying AAO pore structures through different electrolytes. It is found that the anodizing electrolytes play a vital role in nanowire growth and structure formation.
