Semiconductor nanowire thermoelectric materials and devices, and processes for producing same
Patent
·
OSTI ID:1093435
The present invention provides nanowires and nanoribbons that are well suited for use in thermoelectric applications. The nanowires and nanoribbons are characterized by a periodic compositional longitudinal modulation. The nanowires are constructed using lithographic techniques from thin semiconductor membranes, or "nanomembranes."
