Antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) hexagonal nanotubes (HNT) exhibit moderate electrical conductivity and a reasonable Seebeck coefficient of around 430 μV K-1 at 370 K. Compared to bulk materials, the electrical conductivity of Sb2Se3 HNT is about 5 orders of magnitude higher, while its thermal conductivity is only half. The calculated figure of merit (ZT) at room temperature is the highest reported in 1D structures of antimony selenide.
Antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) is a material widely used in photodetectors and relatively new as a possible material for thermoelectric applications. Taking advantage of the new properties after nanoscale fabrication, this material shows great potential for the development of efficient low temperature thermoelectric devices. Here we study the synthesis, the crystal properties and the thermal and thermoelectric transport response of Sb2Se3 hexagonal nanotubes (HNT) in the temperature range between 120 and 370 K. HNT have a moderate electrical conductivity similar to 10(2) S m(-1) while maintaining a reasonable Seebeck coefficient similar to 430 mu V K-1 at 370 K. The electrical conductivity in Sb2Se3 HNT is about 5 orders of magnitude larger and its thermal conductivity one half of what is found in bulk. Moreover, the calculated figure of merit (ZT) at room temperature is the largest value reported in antimony selenide 1D structures.
