چکیده

Arrays of semimetallic Bi nanowires have been successfully fabricated by electrodeposition. Each nanowire consists of elongated Bi grains along the wire direction. Very large positive magnetoresistance of 300% at low temperatures and 70% at room temperature with quasilinear field dependence has been observed. These features are desirable for wide-range field sensing applications. © 1998 American Institute of Physics. @S0003-6951~98!00236-8#

Finite-size effects in bismuth nanowires

Arrays of semimetallic Bi nanowires, fabricated by electrodeposition, exhibit strong finite-size effects in transport properties as the carrier mean-free path is limited by the wire dimensions. We have observed a resistivity enhancement, a very large positive magnetoresistance, and a resistance maximum that depends on the strength and orientation of the magnetic field and the nanowire diameter....

Investigations of Microstructures and Magnetic Properties through Off-time between Pulses and Controlled Cu Content in Pulse Electrodeposited NiCu Nanowires

NiCu alloy nanowires arrays were embedded into the anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template by ac-pulse electrodeposition. Different off-time were used in electrolyte with constant concentration of Ni and Cu and acidity of 3. The effect of deposition parameters on alloy contents was investigated by studying the microstructure and magnetic properties of as-deposited NiCu alloy nanowires. Atomic forc...

Investigations of Magnetic Properties Through Electrodeposition Current and Controlled Cu Content in Pulse Electrodeposited CoFeCu Nanowires

CoFeCu nanowires were deposited by pulsed electrodeposition technique into the porous alumina templates by a two-step mild anodization technique, using the single-bath method. The electrodeposition was performed in a constant electrolyte while Cu constant was controlled by electrodeposition current. The electrodeposition current was 3.5, 4.25, 5 and 6 mA. The effect of electrodeposition current...

Thermal properties of electrodeposited bismuth telluride nanowires embedded in amorphous alumina

Bismuth telluride nanowires are of interest for thermoelectric applications because of the predicted enhancement in the thermoelectric figure-of-merit in nanowire structures. In this letter, we carried out temperature-dependent thermal diffusivity characterization of a 40 nm diameter Bi2Te3 nanowires/alumina nanocomposite. Measured thermal diffusivity of the composite decreases from 9.2310−7 m2...

Thermoelectric Properties of Bismuth Nanowires: Bismuth nanowires were electrochemically deposited in ion track-etched polymer membranes and their transport properties were studied. The Seebeck coefficients of single-and polycrystalline nanowires were measured as a function of wire diameter and temperature. For that purpose, a sample holder was designed that is capable of contacting nanowire ar...
