4. Thermoelectric nanomaterials
Transport properties in nanostructures and macrostructures differ significantly (for a review of the contribution of nanotechnologies in this field, see
[NM 5 100]
or
). The thermal conductivity of nanostructures such as superlattices (material in which nanometric layers of various elements or substances alternate periodically) is lower than in bulk materials. This is a potentially positive aspect for thermoelectricity. However, these nanostructures, generally obtained by thin-film deposition techniques (molecular-jet epitaxy, Knudsen cells, pulsed laser,...
