CsPb3Bi3Te8 and CsPb4Bi3Te9: low-dimensional compounds and the homologous series CsPbmBi3Te5 + m
Abstract
Two new thermoelectric materials of quaternary bismuth telluride CsPb3Bi3Te8 and CsPb4Bi3Te9 are reported, which are members of a homologous series featuring anionic slabs [PbmBi3Te5 + m]− (m = 1–4) of monotonically increasing thickness.
