Effects of Some Additives on Thermoelectric Properties of FeSi2 Thin Films

Abstract
Effects of some additives (V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Pd, Pt) on thermoelectric properties of FeSi2 thin films were studied. V, Cr or Mn-doped FeSi2 films were of p-type semiconductor and Co, Ni, Pd and Pt-doped FeSi2 films of n-type semiconductor. It was indicated that V or Cr are more suitable additives in thermoelectric properties of p-type FeSi2 than Mn and that Pt is superior to other additives in thermoelectric properties of n-type FeSi2.
