Bismuth telluride nanowires (Bi2Te3 NWs) are proposed to reveal a thermoelectric figure of merit ZT that is influenced by confinement and surface effects. To determine the role of surface effects we consider individual single crystalline NWs as model system of a high surface-to-volume-ratio for which grain boundary scattering is negligible. We demonstrate the state-of-the-art of the combination of the structural, chemical, and temperature-dependent complete thermoelectric characterization for individual single crystalline Bi0.39Te0.61 NWs, which only differ in surface morphology. With the 3ω-method a reduction of the thermal conductivity of about 50 % is measured in a diameter varied NW with respect to a NW with a constant diameter [1]. For homogenous, diameter varied and single indented NWs finite element simulations are performed to interpret the measurement results [2].
