Optical and transport properties of few quintuple-layers of Bi2-xSbxSe3 nanoflakes synthesized by hydrothermal method
Hydrothermal synthesis as a commonly bottom-up growth method has considerable advantages for manufacturing thermoelectric nanomaterials with advanced thermoelectric properties. However, the hydrothermally synthesized thermoelectric nanostructures often show a low thermoelectric performance due to their low power factor. In this work, we report on using a hydrothermal method for the growth of n-type Bi2-xSbxSe3 nanoflakes with a fixed thickness of ∼16 ... Read more
