Abstract(in English) | In order to develop a high-efficiency thermoelectric device, we have investigated the thermoelectric characteristics of Si nanostructures. We have measured the Seebeck coefficient for ultrathin SOI (silicon on insulator) layers with various thickness and carrier concentration to clarify the electron confinement effect in the thermoelectric characteristics. In the present paper, we show the theoretically-evaluated Seebeck coefficient for Si, based on the Boltzmann transport equation, and demonstrate a new method for the Seebeck-coefficient measurement using a KFM (Kelvin-probe force microscopy) technique. |
