    Bismuth telluride (Bi <inf>2</inf> Te <inf>3</inf> ) thin films have been deposited onto polyimide sheet substrates by direct-current (DC) magnetron sputtering at different powers and their microstructure, composition, and electrical and thermoelectrical properties studied. The experimental results indicated that the sputtering power was the key parameter determining their thermoelectric properties. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the highly (015) preferred orientation of the films. The Te content and grain size depended on the sputtering power. The power factor of Bi <inf>2</inf> Te <inf>3</inf> deposited by DC sputtering at power of 60 W was comparable to that obtained for highly (00l) Bi <inf>2</inf> Te <inf>3</inf> thin film.

    Simultaneous stoichiometric composition and highly (00l) orientation of flexible Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> thin films were investigated under the DC magnetron sputtering parameters. Stoichiometric Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> and highly (00l) orientation structure was obtained by sputtering conditions, preheat temperature at 350 °C, and working pressure of 1.8 × 10<sup>−3</sup> mbar. This designed structure of layered compact feature with stoichiometry provide the relatively high mobility. The maximum carrier mobility of 118 cm<sup>2</sup>/V was observed for highly (00l) film. The electrical conductivity of thin film has been greatly enhanced, to a maximum of about 14.90 × 10<sup>3</sup> S/cm at 50 °C. This value is higher than those of hot-pressed or spark plasma sintering n-type Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> bulk alloys. The maximum power factor of 12.5 × 10<sup>−3</sup> W/m.K<sup>2</sup> was obtained at 300 °C.
