Growth and Characterization of Bismuth Telluride Nanowires
Polycrystalline Bi2Te3 nanowires are electrochemically grown in ion track-etched polycarbonate membranes. Potentiostatic growth is demonstrated in templates of various thicknesses ranging from 10 to 100 μm. The smallest observed nanowire diameters are 20 nm in thin membranes and approx. 140 180 nm in thicker membranes. The influence of the various deposition parameters on the nanowire growth ra...
متن کاملMode-Wise Thermal Conductivity of Bismuth Telluride
Thermal properties and transport control are important for many applications, for example, low thermal conductivity is desirable for thermoelectrics. Knowledge of modewise phonon properties is crucial to identify dominant phonon modes for thermal transport and to design effective phonon barriers for thermal transport control. In this paper, we adopt time-domain (TD) and frequency-domain (FD) no...
متن کاملTemplate Synthesis of Bismuth Telluride Nanowires
We report the fabrication of thermoelectric bismuth teUuride nanowires using the template synthesis method. A simple electrodeposition procedure was used to produce the nanowires within the pores of an alumina filtration membrane. The resulting bismuth telluride/alumina composite membranes constitute an array of thermoelectric nanowires surrounded by a thermally and electrically insulating matr...
متن کاملFirst Principles Investigation of Ferromagnetism and Ferroelectricity in Bismuth Manganite
We present results of local spin density approximation (LSDA) pseudopotential calculations for the perovskite structure oxide, bismuth manganite (BiMnO3). The origin of the differences between bismuth manganite and other perovskite manganites is determined by first calculating total energies and band structures of the high symmetry cubic phase, then sequentially lowering the magnetic and struct...
متن کاملThermoelectric and structural characterizations of individual electrodeposited bismuth telluride nanowires
The thermoelectric properties and crystal structure of individual electrodeposited bismuth telluride nanowires NWs were characterized using a microfabricated measurement device and transmission electron microscopy. Annealing in hydrogen was used to obtain electrical contact between the NW and the supporting Pt electrodes. By fitting the measured Seebeck coefficient with a two-band model, the NW...
