Strain Relaxation in "2D/2D and 2D/3D Systems":Highly Textured Mica/Bi2Te3, Sb2Te3/Bi2Te3, and Bi2Te3/GeTe Heterostructures [PDF]
Strain engineering as a method to control functional properties has seen in the last decades a surge of interest. Heterostructures comprising 2D-materials and containing van der Waals(-like) gaps were considered unsuitable for strain engineering. However,

Electrodeposition of Ni on Bi2Te3 and Interfacial Reaction Between Sn and Ni-Coated Bi2Te3 [PDF]
Bismuth-telluride (Bi2Te3)-based compounds are common thermoelectric materials used for low-temperature applications, and nickel (Ni) is usually deposited on the Bi2Te3 substrates as a diffusion barrier. Deposition of Ni on the p-type (Sb-doped) and n-type (Se-doped) Bi2Te3 substrates using electroplating and interfacial reactions between Sn and Ni ...

Enhancing thermoelectric performance of Bi2Te3-based nanostructures through rational structure design [PDF]
Nanostructuring has been successfully employed to enhance the thermoelectric performance of Bi2Te3 due to its obtained low thermal conductivity. In order to further reduce the thermal conductivity, we designed a hierarchical nanostructure assembled with ...
