Abstract
The promise of low dimensional thermoelectric materials for enhanced perfor mance is reviewed, with particular attention given to quantum wells and qua ntum wires. The high potential of bismuth as a low-dimensional thermoelectr ic material is discussed. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S1063-78 34(99)00105-7].
