Thermal diffusivity measurements of templated nanocomposite using infrared thermography

Arnaud Magrez, Helmuth Berger, Philippe Bugnon, Manish Sharma

Electrodeposited bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) nanowires using anodic alumina (AAO) templates show anisotropic thermal properties in a direction parallel and perpendicular to the nanowire/nanochannel axis. The present study reports thermal diffusivity measure ...

Low temperature resistivity, thermoelectricity, and power factor of Nb doped anatase TiO2

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Richard Gaal, Jacim Jacimovic

The resistivity of a very high quality anatase TiO2 doped with 6% of Nb was measured from 300K down to 40 mK. No sign of superconductivity was detected. Instead, a minute quantity of cation vacancies resulted in a Kondo scattering. Measurements of thermo-e ...

Performance improvement of a micro thermomechanical generator by incorporating Galinstan (R) micro droplet arrays

In previous research we have demonstrated a micro thermomechanical pyroelectric generator (mu TMPG) as an alternative to thermoelectric generators to harvest ambient heat energy. In such a device, a thermal mass oscillates between a hot and a cold side by ...

Microstructure and thermoelectric properties of bulk and porous n-type silicon-germanium alloy prepared by HUP

Cyril Cayron

The optimization of powders preparation and consolidation process leads to the achievement of a high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT=1.25 at 800°C) in an n-type silicon-germanium (SiGe) alloy hot pressed at low heating rate. It has been experimentally o ...

Pressure dependence of the large-polaron transport in anatase TiO2 single crystals

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Richard Gaal, Helmuth Berger, Jacim Jacimovic, George Cristian Vaju, Radomir Zikic

We have measured the pressure and temperature dependences of the resistivity and the thermoelectric power of anatase, TiO2. The resistivity varies with T-3 at high temperatures, and its absolute value is in the 1 Omega cm range. Below 60 K, the resistivity ...

Electronic, vibrational, and transport properties of pnictogen-substituted ternary skutterudites

Nicola Marzari, Boris Kozinsky

First principles calculations are used to investigate electronic band structure and vibrational spectra of pnictogen-substituted ternary skutterudites. We compare the results with the prototypical binary composition CoSb3 to identify the effects of substit ...

High-pressure study of transport properties in Co0.33NbS2

László Forró, Helmuth Berger, Jacim Jacimovic, Eduard Tutis, Ofer Yuli, Neven Barisic

This is the first study of the effect of pressure on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) intercalated by atoms that order magnetically. Co0.33NbS2 is a layered system where the intercalated Co atoms order antiferromagnetically at T-N = 26 K at ambient ...

Characterization of Ge-based clathrates oxidized in air by means of TEM and SEM

Cécile Hébert, Marco Cantoni, Barbora Bártová

Germanium based clathrate-I compounds are considered for their potential applications due to possible thermoelectric and optoelectronic properties. Clathrate compounds may be an alternative to well known thermoelectric materials at higher temperature. In t ...
