| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this research was to understand the heat conduction inside the nanostructure by evaluating the thermal conductivity of M (M: Si, Ge, Si/SiGe0.3) NWs composites. Furthermore, the electrical characteristics (electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient) of the SiNWs-SiGe0.3 composite is also evaluated. As the result of these evaluation, we demonstrated that the thermal conductivity could be reduced without decreasing the electrical characteristics. Moreover, we also demonstrated that the SiNW-SiGe0.3 composite could be used for TE conversion element applications.
