Material Science
Exercise 1 (15 points) Bismuth telluride, especially the Bi2Te3 compound, is a well investigated material, also because it has favourable thermoelectric properties. This means that a heat gradient, applied across the material, via the Seebeck effect generates an electric current. This is of interest for directly generating electrical power from (waste) heat. We first consider an alloy with a Te concentration of 70 at.% being cooled down from 700°C; see figure below. a. At what
