Magnetotransport and thermal properties of microwave-synthesized nanostructured Bi2Te3, a well-known material of topological interest, have been studied in detail. Temperature-dependent resistivity shows a disordered metal-like behavior at high temperature with unsaturated ln(T)-dependent upturns at low temperature manifesting localization tendency. The slopes (κ) of the normalized conductivity (Δσ) vs ln(T) curves change sharply with magnetic fields upto 1 T and then saturate at a certain higher field (Bϕ), which is an indication of a combined electron–electron interaction and quantum interference effect (QIE) dominated transport. A noteworthy result is a crossover from positive to negative Coulomb screening factor (F) in Bi2Te3. Low-field (H ≤ 1 T) magnetoconductivity at low temperature follows a 2D Hikami–Larkin–Nagaoka equation, thereby revealing the QIE and associated dephasing nature of the electronic states at high temperatures. High-field (14 T) magnetoresistance (MR) at 2 K shows interesting features like low-field weak antilocalization, possibly a defect-induced negative MR that vanishes after post-annealing treatment, and a high field parabolic character in place. The Seebeck coefficient (S) is negative and varies quasilinearly with a slight but notable slope change at intermediate temperatures. Heat capacity measurements are in line with a narrow gap degenerate semiconductor with a low θD of 140 K. A combined analysis of heat capacity and thermopower reveals the localization of carriers at low temperatures and is in line with transport data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
