Open AccessPreparation and thermoelectric properties of p-type Bi0.52Sb1.48Te3 + 3% Te thin films
Thin films of p-type Bi0.52Sb1.48Te3 + 3% Te were deposited on glass substrates by flash evaporation. X-ray diffraction and field-emission scanning electron microscopy were performed to characterize the thin film...

TIMS U-series ages of speleothems from the Tangshan caves, Nan**g
U-series ages of a set of speleothem samples from the two caves near Tangshan Town, Nan**g, determined by thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS), range from older than 500 KaBP to around 20 kaBP. These d...
