Título: | Ultra-low thermal conductivities in large-area Si-Ge nanomeshes for thermoelectric applications |
Autor: | Pérez Taborda, Jaime Andrés CSIC ORCID; Muñoz Rojo, Miguel CSIC ORCID CVN; Maiz, Jon CSIC ORCID; Neophytou,Neophytos; Martín-González, Marisol CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 21-sep-2016 | Editor: | Nature Publishing Group | Citación: | Scientific Reports 6: 32778 (2016) | Resumen: | In this work, we measure the thermal and thermoelectric properties of large-area Si0.8Ge0.2 nano-meshed films fabricated by DC sputtering of Si0.8Ge0.2 on highly ordered porous alumina matrices. The Si0.8Ge0.2 film replicated the porous alumina structure resulting in nano-meshed films. Very good control of the nanomesh geometrical features (pore diameter, pitch, neck) was achieved through the alumina template, with pore diameters ranging from 294 ± 5nm down to 31 ± 4 nm. The method we developed is able to provide large areas of nano-meshes in a simple and reproducible way, being easily scalable for industrial applications. Most importantly, the thermal conductivity of the films was reduced as the diameter of the porous became smaller to values that varied from κ = 1.54 ± 0.27 W K−1m−1, down to the ultra-low κ = 0.55 ± 0.10 W K−1m−1 value. The latter is well below the amorphous limit, while the Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity of the material were retained. These properties, together with our large area fabrication approach, can provide an important route towards achieving high conversion efficiency, large area, and high scalable thermoelectric materials. | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.1038/srep32778 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/181544 | DOI: | 10.1038/srep32778 | E-ISSN: | 2045-2322 |
