Acoustic impedance and interface phonon scattering in Bi$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ and other semiconducting materials

Journal Article Chen, Xin ; Parker, David S ; Singh, David J - Physical Review B

We present first principles calculations of the phonon dispersions of \BiTe and discuss these in relation to the acoustic phonon interface scattering in ceramics. The phonon dispersions show agreement with what is known from neutron scattering for the optic modes. We find a difference between the generalized gradient approximation and local density results for the acoustic branches. This is a consequence of an artificial compression of the van der Waals bonded gaps in the \BiTe structure when using the generalized gradient approximation. As a result local density approximation calculations provide a better description of the phonon dispersions in Bimore »« less

Wettability, energy of adhesion, and contact resistance at the interface of single crystals of solid solutions in the system Bi/sub 2/Te/sub 3/-Sb/sub 2/Te/sub 3/ with contact materials based on Bi, Sn, Pb, and Cd

Journal Article Dzhamalov, N A ; Feiziev, Ya S ; Barkhalov, B Sh ; ... - Inorg. Mater. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)

The authors study the surface tension of different alloys based on bismuth, tin, lead and cadmium and the equilibrium angle of contact for crystals wetted by solid solutions in the bismuth telluride-antimony telluride system and the electrical resistance of transitional contacts at the interface of the alloy material with the crystal of the solid solution. They also investigate the dependence of the surface tension and wetting angle on temperature and the dependence of the resistivity and wetting angle on the state of the wetted surfaces. Results are tabulated.
