Abstract

Various transport measurements are performed to assess the alloying and size effects in sub-100 nm Bi_1-xSb_x (0≤x≤0.15) nanowires. Temperature-dependent resistance measurements exhibit non-monotonic trends as x increases, and a theoretical model is presented to explain the features which are related to the unusual band structure of Bi_1-xSb_x systems. Magnetoresistance measurements of these Bi_1-xSb_x nanowires show interesting size-dependent behaviors similar to those in Bi nanowires.
