Abstract

The electronic and phononic band structure of silicon nanowires embedded in SiGeo.3 is calculated and used to investigate its effect on the thermoelectric properties by Landauer approach. The contribution from elec-Tron/hole on power factor and electronic thermal con-ductance is less than that from phonons on lattice ther-mal conductance.
