Antimony telluride (SbxTey) thin films were synthesized by an electrodeposition method with a control of applied potential at room temperature. Characterization of electrical and thermoelectric properties such as conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and power factor (P.F.) were conducted as a function of the chemical composition of the electrodeposited films. Morphology of thin films were dense and uniform and the composition was tailored from 25 to 60 at.% of the Sb content by altering the applied potential from -0.13 to -0.27 V (vs. SCE). The conductivity of the films were ranged from 2 × 10-4 ~ 5 × 10-1 S/cm indicating their amorphous behavior. The meaured Seebeck coefficient of films were relatively high compared to that of bulk single cyrstal SbxTey due to their low carrier concentration. The variation of the Seebeck coefficient of the films was also related to the change of chemical composition, showing the power factor of ~10 μW/mK2.
