摘要
The effect of doping with Sn on the properties of Czochrakki-grown Bi2Te3 crystals was studied. The effective segregation coefficient for Sn was determined to be 0.6. The thermoelectric power, electrical conductivity, and Hall coefficient of the doped crystals were measured at room temperature. Doping with low Sn concentrations (0.2-0.5 at. %) was found to have only a weak effect on the electrical properties of p-type Bi2Te3. Doping with 0.7-1 at. % Sn reduces the thermoelectric power and increases the electrical conductivity and hole concentration. Lattice thermal conductivity is a nonmonotonic function of Sn concentration. The thermoelectric figure of merit of Bi2Te3 doped with less than 0.6 at. % Sn exceeds that of undoped Bi2Te3.
