TiO{sub 2}-CoO coaxial nanocables were deposited into anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) nanoporous templates to form nanocomposite materials. Electron microscopic analysis was conducted to reveal their structures. Seebeck coefficients of the composites were measured. The highest absolute value of Seebeck coefficient is 393 {micro}V K{sup -1} for the TiO{sub 2} nanotube-filled AAO. The TiO{sub 2}-CoO coaxial nanocable-filled AAO has a lower absolute value of 300 {micro}V K{sup -1}. Both composites showed n-type behavior. The effect of Ag nanoparticles addition on the thermoelectric behavior was also examined.
