[Display omitted] • A metastable cubic phase of Mg 3 Bi 2 that only existed under high temperatures and high pressures was observed in the sputtered Mg 3 Bi 2 film. • A structural transition from cubic to hexagonal phase occurs as substrate temperature increases. • The n-type behavior of the cubic phase of Mg 3 Bi 2 film was initially observed, followed by the p-type behavior of the hexagonal phase of Mg 3 Bi 2 film. Mg 3 Bi 2 has become a promising candidate for studying thermoelectric, Mg-ion batteries and novel topological properties. In this paper, the Mg 3 Bi 2 thin films were deposited on glass substrates by magnetron co-sputtering under substrate temperatures ranging from 535 K to 595 K. A metastable cubic Mg 3 Bi 2 that only existed under high temperatures and high pressures was observed in the Mg 3 Bi 2 film deposited at T s = 535 K. A structural phase transition occurs as T s increases, and a textured hexagonal Mg 3 Bi 2 film was obtained at T s = 595 K. The microstructure and thermoelectric properties of cubic Mg 3 Bi 2 and hexagonal Mg 3 Bi 2 films were systematically investigated. The cubic Mg 3 Bi 2 film exhibited n-type semiconductor behavior. However, the hexagonal Mg 3 Bi 2 thin film possessed a positive Seebeck coefficient. A maximum power factor of 1.1 μWcm-1K−2 was obtained in textured hexagonal Mg 3 Bi 2 film at 393 K. Our results could pave the way toward the engineering phase of Mg 3 Bi 2 film, which has potential applications in micro-energy harvesting devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
