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 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 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...
متن کاملGrowth of Antimony Telluride and Bismuth Selenide Topological Insulator Nanowires
Topological insulators are a relatively new class of materials, which are insulating in the bulk and conductive on the surface. Surface conductance measurements of topological insulators are often obscured by impurities in the bulk. Nanowires made of a topologically insulating material provide a solution to this problem with their large surface-area-to-volume ratio. I examine the growth procedu...
متن کاملThermoelectric properties of electrically gated bismuth telluride nanowires
We theoretically studied how the electric field effect can modify thermoelectric properties of intrinsic, n-type and p-type bismuth telluride nanowires with the growth direction 110 . The electronic structure and the wave functions were calculated by solving self-consistently the system of the Schrödinger and Poisson equations using the spectral method. The Poisson equation was solved in terms ...
