摘要: TiO2–CoO coaxial nanocables were deposited into anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) nanoporous templates to form nanocomposite materials. Electron microscopic analysis was conducted reveal their structures. Seebeck coefficients of the composites measured. The highest absolute value coefficient is 393 μV K–1 for TiO2 nanotube-filled AAO. nanocable-filled AAO has a lower 300 μV K–1. Both showed n-type behavior. effect Ag nanoparticles addition on thermoelectric behavior also examined.
