Theoretical investigation of thermoelectric transport properties of cylindrical Bi nanowires
Abstract
We report here a theoretical model for the transport properties of cylindrical Bi nanowires. Based on the band structure of Bi nanowires and the semiclassical transport model, the thermoelectric figure of merit ${Z}_{1\mathrm{D}}T$ is calculated for Bi nanowires with various wire diameters and wire orientations. The results show the trigonal axis is the most favorable wire orientation for thermoelectric applications, and ${Z}_{1\mathrm{D}}T>1$ is predicted for n-type trigonal wires with diameters ${d}_{w}<10$ nm. The effect of the T-point holes on ${Z}_{1\mathrm{D}}T$ is also investigated. It is found that ${Z}_{1\mathrm{D}}T$ can be significantly enhanced, especially for p-type Bi nanowires, if the T-point holes are removed or suppressed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
