Abstract
We have grown composite epitaxial materials that consist of semimetallic ErAs nanoparticles embedded in a semiconducting In0.53Ga0.47As matrix both as superlattices and randomly distributed throughout the matrix. The presence of these particles increases the free electron concentration in the material while providing scattering centers for phonons. We measure electron concentration, mobility, and Seebeck coefficient of these materials and discuss their potential for use in thermoelectric power generators.
