Thermoelectric Power Factor of Low Dimensional Silicon Nanowires
We analyze the thermoelectric power factor in ultra-narrow low-dimensional silicon nanowires (NWs) by employing atomistic considerations for the electronic structures and linearized Boltzmann transport theory. We consider different transport orientations and both n-type and p-type NWs. We show that the NW properties are highly anisotropic, especially for p-type, and as the diameter is reduced f...
متن کاملThermoelectric power in the quantum-Hall regime at very low temperatures
We have measured the thermoelectric power (TEP) of high mobility 2DEGs in the integer and fractional quantum Hall regime down to 100 mK. At low temperatures, fluctuation-like structures in the TEP are observed. Below 160 mK the TEP diverges around the filling factor v = ~ where the resistivity enters the insulating phase. The temperature dependence of the TEP at filling factors v = 12 and 1⁄4 r...
متن کاملPressure-induced insulator-to-metal transitions for enhancing thermoelectric power factor in bismuth telluride-based alloys.
First-principles calculations revealing insulator-to-metal transitions in Bi2Te3 and Bi2Te2Se, at 9 GPa and 12.5 GPa, respectively, match with prior experiments. Our electronic band structure calculations and accompanying Boltzmann transport calculations of thermoelectric properties for Bi2-xSbxTe2-ySey alloys explain and predict large power factor changes induced by pressure. Complex band dege...
متن کاملThermoelectric Power of Insulators and Reconsideration of Kelvin’s Relations at Low Temperatures
Thermoelectric effects in Kondo insulators are attracting interests because of the emerging possibility of developping better thermoelectric materials for a portable refrigerator without liquid coolant. In this article, the theory of thermoelectric effects are reinvestigated for insulators or semiconductors at low temperatures. It is found that the famous relations established by Lord Kelvin fo...
