We compare Bi 2 Te 3  powders prepared by conventional ball milling to powders milled in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO 2 ). We demonstrate that scCO 2  milling overcomes size-reduction limitations reported for conventional milling. XRD and TEM reveal nanograins with smaller average sizes (&lt; 10 nm) and narrower grain size distributions in the scCO 2  milled case. scCO 2  milling also preserves the crystallinity and shows less oxidation than conventional milling. This is the first report of Bi 2 Te 3  with a sub-10 nm grain size whilst conserving high quality crystallinity, made using a top-down approach. Our study offers a route for developing unprecedentedly fine bulk nanostructured Bi 2 Te 3 -based thermoelectric materials.
