摘要：
The paper focuses on the determination of thermal and electrical transport properties of individual nanowires, preferably thermoelectric bismuth and bismuth compound nanowires, prepared by ion-track-technology. Also the thermoelectric parameters S, sigma, lambda, z (with S: Seebeck coefficient; sigma: electrical conductivity; lambda: thermal conductivity; z: thermoelectric efficiency) of template-embedded nanowire arrays have been investigated. For measurements of S, sigma, lambda, and z specially designed microchips have been developed and employed. The microfabricated z-chip is designed and optimized to determine all thermoelectric parameters on one and the same individual nanowire.
