Abstract
The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the energy gap of Bi2Te3 has been investigated in the pressure range one to 30 000 atm. From resistivity measurements as a function of temperature and pressure, it has been determined that the energy gap decreases from 0.171 ev at one atmosphere to 0.104 ev at 30 000 atm, corresponding to ∂Eg(0)/∂p=−2×10−6 ev/atm.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
