As the applied gate voltage changes, the TEP shows distinctly different behaviors while the electrical conductance exhibits the turn-off, subthreshold, and saturation regimes, respectively. At room temperature, peak TEP value of ∼300μ∼300 μV/K is observed in the subthreshold regime of the Si devices. The temperature dependence of the saturated TEP values is used to estimate the carrier doping of Si nanowires.en-USElectric field effect thermoelectric transport in individual silicon and germanium/silicon nanowiresJournal Article2017-05-1220162017-07-1810.1063/1.4953818
