Abstract:Over the past few decades, telluride-based chalcogenide multilayers, such as PbSeTe/PbTe, Bi 2 Te 3 /Sb 2 Te 3 , and Bi 2 Te 3 /Bi 2 Se 3 , were shown to be promising high-performance thermoelectric films. However, the stability of performance in operating environments, in particular, influenced by intermixing of the sublayers, has been studied rarely. In the present work, the nanostructure, thermal stability, and thermoelectric power factor of Sb 2 Te 3 /Ge 1+x Te multilayers prepared by pulsed laser depositi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
