Nonequilibrium evaporation enables carrier polarity control in Bi‐Te thin films
InfoScience, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.Controlling carrier polarity in semiconductors is important for developing advanced electronics but is usually achieved through doping or composition engineering. Here, we demonstrate that nonequilibrium evaporation can naturally reshape Bi–Te thin films from a Te‐rich p‐type conducting phase to a Bi2Te3‐rich n‐type phase during growth.
