Integrated phase-Change memory in Bi2Te3 nanowires

Han N.A., Kim S.I., Yang J.D., Lee K., Sohn H., So H-M, Sohn H., Ahn C.W., Yoo K.H., Yonsei University, KR

Bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) and its alloys are considered to be the best avaiable materials for near room-temperature thermoelectric applications. Moreover, because low-dimensional thermoelectric materials are expected to have a higher figure of merit due to [...]

Windows of Opportunity: A New Platform to Understand Structure-Property Relationships in Nanotechnology

Miller J.M, Kearns G.J., Hutchison J.E., Dune Sciences, LLC, US

Excitement about nanotechnology derives from unique size/structure dependent properties of nanoscale materials. Methods to prepare a wide range of structures are now available, but a limited fundamental understanding of structure-function relationships remains a significant challenge [...]
