Bi-based core/shell nanowires are promising thermoelectric materials in order to improve the dimensionless figure of merit ZT=σ S2/λT, with the electrical conductivity σ, the Seebeck coefficient S, the thermal conductivity λ and the bath temperature T. The mismatch of the different lattice constants between the core (Bi) and the shell (Te or TiO2) lead to a strain-induced reduction of the band overlap in the Bi-core [1].
However, the determination of σ, S, λ and structural properties of the same individual [2] core/shell nanowire remains an open issue. Here, we present a complete temperature-dependent thermoelectric and structural characterization of an individual Bi/Te and Bi/TiO2 core/shell nanowire.
