Fast synthesis of nanocrystalline Mg2Si by microwave heating: a new route to nano-structured thermoelectric materials.

Dalton Trans. 39 , 11074, (2010)

The ultra fast synthesis of nanocrystalline Mg(2)Si was carried out using microwave radiation. The elemental precursors were first milled together under dry conditions to get fine particles. The resul...
