  • Abstract
    Crystalline structure peculiarities of Bi2Te3-based thermoelectric materials grown in the form of flat plates by the direct crystallization method are examined. Values of the critical parameter (G/V)cr under which the structure perfection of growing crystals becomes poor are estimated. Experimental results of mechanical tension, compression and bending tests carried out in different crystallographic orientations are presented. It is shown that the mechanical characteristics of materials are closely connected with crystalline structure
