Indium tin oxide (Sn-doped In 2 O 3− δ or ITO) is a very interesting and technologically
important transparent conducting oxide. This class of material has been extensively …

Here, a novel synthesis for near monodisperse, sub‐10 nm Bi2Te3 nanoparticles is
reported. A new reduction route to bismuth nanoparticles is described, which are then …

We report a solution-processed, ligand-supported synthesis of 15− 20 nm thick Sb (2− x) Bi x
Te3 nanoplatelets. After complete ligand removal by a facile NH3-based etching procedure …

The dimension and size of the building blocks as well as the preferential orientation,
geometry and regularity of their assemblies are the most important key factors for fabricating …

We study the effects of do** and confinement on the thermoelectric properties of
nanocrystalline semiconductors. We calculate the thermopower and figure of merit for …

We present a case where the microstructure has a profound effect on the thermoelectric
properties of oxide compounds. Specifically, we have investigated the effect of different …

High quality c-axis-oriented Ca 3 Co 4 O 9 thin films have been grown on Si substrates
using pulsed laser deposition under different oxygen pressures. The morphology and …

We study the relaxation dynamics of electron distribution function on the island of a single-
electron transistor. We focus on the regime of not very low temperatures in which an electron …

A novel combination of Trizma, as an environmentally friendly chelating agent, with either
weak or strong reducing agent was used to produce n-type bismuth telluride (Bi 2 Te 3) …

We study thermoelectric properties of inhomogeneous nanogranular materials for weak
tunneling conductance between the grains, gt< 1. We calculate the thermopower and figure …
