Doping effect on the thermoelectric transport properties of HfTe5

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Junfeng Hu

We studied the influence of doping HfTe5 with 5% Ti on electric (resistivity and the Hall effect) and thermoelectric transport properties (the Seebeck coefficient, magneto-thermoelectric power, and Nernst effect). The properties of 5% Ti-doped HfTe5 do not ...

Production of phosphorene nanoribbons

Vasiliki Tileli

Phosphorene is a mono-elemental, two-dimensional (2D) substance with outstanding, highly directional properties and a bandgap that depends on the number of layers of the material(1-8). Nanoribbons, meanwhile, combine the flexibility and unidirectional prop ...

Tailoring thermal properties of functional materials

Xavier François Mettan

Thermal conductivity (k) plays an essential role in functional devices. In some cases, high value is required to transfer heat efficiently. In others, low k assists in maintaining a temperature gradient necessary for device operation. It is profitable to d ...

The influence of the incommensurately modulated structure on the physical properties of Fe1.35Ge

László Forró, Helmuth Berger, Philip Pattison, Alla Arakcheeva, Jacim Jacimovic, Sergiy Katrych, Andrea Pisoni, Krunoslav Prsa

Single crystal growth by chemical vapour transport has resulted samples with Fe1.35Ge stoichiometry. Structural study has shown that the large number of vacancies introduces an incommensuately modulated structure. The electrical resistivity is in the 200 m ...

Water-energy nexus approach to compare performance of evaporative and vapor-compression cooling systems

Dolaana Khovalyg, Amirreza Heidari

Evaporative cooling systems consume high water, but low electricity for their operation. On the other hand, vapor compression systems consume no water, but high electricity. Water and energy systems are interconnected at different levels. Therefore, water ...
