Direct tuning of electrical properties in nano-structured Bi2Se0.3Te2.7 by reversible electrochemical lithium reactions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lithium intercalation and de-intercalation processes have been used to fabricate bulk Bi(2)Se(0.3)Te(2.7) with internal nanostructures. The doped Li content can be precisely controlled through this method. It provides a chance to directly optimize electrical properties when preparing nano-structured materials, leading to the optimum carrier concentration for improved thermoelectric figure of merit.

متن کاملElectrochemical properties of Sn-decorated SnO nanobranches as an anode of Li-ion battery
Sn-based oxide materials as an anode of lithium ion batteries (LIBs) suffer from the unavoidable mechanical stress originated from huge volume changes during lithiation/delithiation reactions. We synthesized the hierarchical SnO nanobranches (NBs) decorated with Sn nanoparticles on Cu current collector using a vapor transport method. The Sn-decorated SnO NBs as an anode of LIB showed good elect...
