The field of thermoelectric research has undergone a renaissance and boom in the past two
and a half decades, largely fueled by the prospect of engineering electronic and phononic …

Research on thermoelectrics has seen a huge resurgence since the early 1990s. The ability
of tuning a material's electrical and thermal transport behavior upon nanostructuring has led …

High-density and large-area vertically aligned porous silicon nanowire arrays (SiNWAs) with
different morphologies, such as various lengths, porosities and heterogeneous diameters …

Millivolt range thermovoltage is demonstrated in single InAs nanowire based field effect
transistors. Thanks to a buried heating scheme, we drive both a large thermal bias Δ T> 10 K …

Compared with the bulk, one-dimensional (1D) nanostructural materials exhibit enhanced
thermoelectric performance. The figures of merit for most bulk materials used in practical …

Advances in quantum technology may come from the discovery of new materials systems
that improve the performance or allow for new functionality in electronic devices. Lead …

The lead-free compound tin telluride (SnTe) has recently been suggested to be a promising
thermoelectric material. In this work, we report on the first thermoelectric study of individual …

This review focuses on the investigation and enhancement of the thermoelectric properties
of semiconducting nanowires (NWs). NWs are nanostructures with typical diameters …

Precise measurements of a complete set of thermoelectric parameters on a single indium-
arsenide nanowire (NW) have been performed using highly sensitive, micro-fabricated …

Nanowires of bismuth antimony telluride and bismuth telluride selenide (Bi 15 Sb 29 Te 56
and Bi 38 Te 55 Se 7) were grown by template-based pulsed electrodeposition. The …
