Multifold improvement of thermoelectric power factor by tuning bismuth and antimony in nanostructured n-type bismuth antimony telluride thin films
Bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) based alloys are preferred thermoelectric materials for room temperature thermoelectric applications. Electrical transport and thermopower properties of n-type nanostructured BixSb2-xTe3 films were tuned by post-growth heat treatment. We report that annealing of sputter-de...
