Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Effect of residual strain on the thermoelectric properties of Mg2Si films was investigated. Strain from 0.2% tensile to 0.4% compressive was successfully remained by changing the kinds of substrates. However, noticeable change was not detected. Mg-Ca-Si films were also prepared. Films with Si excess composition showed n-type conduction, while films with other composition showed p-type conduction. Thermoelectric properties strongly depend on film composition. However Ca-substituted Mg2Si did not show any noticeable improvement of thermoelectric properties.
