Z. Naturforsch. 60a, 408 – 410 (2005); received March 2, 2005 On the basis of the most recently reported spectroscopic data on vibrational modes in TeCl4 and structural parameters of TeCl4, an estimation of its main force constants complemented with the calculation of mean amplitudes of vibration in a wide temperature range have been performed. Also thermodynamic functions for the ideal gaseous...

This review summarizes the synthesis and anti-cancer phototherapy applications of tellurium nanomaterials, puts forward some breakthrough ideas for subsequent applications.

Tellurium has been primarily used in the steel industry for past 40 years. This material is manufacture of solar cells, lasers, photoresistors, and counters radioactive radiation. Cadmium tellurium batteries are second most popular technology. Another important application thermoelectric generators. In metallurgical industry, as an additive to metals alloys. its compounds enter body mainly thro...

Demonstration of a robust, tellurium-free thermoelectric module for near-room-temperature applications with high conversion efficiency 8.5% and maximum cooling 72 K.
