Abstract

1,216,001. Semi-conductor devices. R. DAHLBERG. 17 Jan., 1968 [17 Jan., 1967], No. 2513/68. Heading H1K. A material primarily for use in thermoelectric applications consists of conductive layers alternately of positive and negative thermoelectric power each thinner than the mean free path of electrical charge carriers in the layer. The layers may be of metal, metallically conductive oxides, or semi-conductors. Suitable conductive materials are the oxides, nitrides and carbides of metals from the group chromium, titanium, iron, indium, manganese, niobium, vanadium, tungsten, molybdenum, uranium, tantalum, zirconium, boron; borides and silicides; germanium, silicon carbide, A III B v , A II B IV , and A I B VII compounds and P and N doped organic semi-conductors. The material is made by pressing or rolling a laminated body constructed of metal foils, or by electrolytic, pyrolytic, vapour or ion beam deposition or cathode sputtering. Deposition is preferably made on a cooled planar substrate which is rotated in front of two vapour sources offset from the axis of rotation to afford easy control of the layer thickness. The materials are said to exhibit photoconductive and photovoltaic effects, superconductivity, variation of resistivity with electric and magnetic fields applied perpendicular or parallel to the layers, to be useful in rectifiers, capacitors and oscillation generators and to exhibit high heat transfer characteristics parallel to the layers. Typical materials consist of an alternating sequence of (1) 500 Š antimony and 1000 Š bismuth layers; (2) 10 Š iron and nickel layers; (3) 10 Š gold and goldpalladium layers; (4) caesium and platinum layers. In a typical thermocouple the two limbs joined by a metal bridge consist of such material, the number of layers in each limb being odd and such that the two layers adjacent the bridge are thermoelectrically P and N respectively.
