AbstractNanocomposite thermoelectrics based on Bi_0.45Sb_1.55Te_2.985 solid solution of p -type conductivity are fabricated by the hot pressing of nanopowders of this solid solution with the addition of SiO_2 microparticles. Investigations of the thermoelectric properties show that the thermoelectric power of the nanocomposites increases in a wide temperature range of 80–420 K, while the thermal conductivity considerably decreases at 80–320 K, which, despite a decrease in the electrical conductivity, leads to an increase in the thermoelectric efficiency in the nanostructured material without the SiO_2 addition by almost 50% (at 300 K). When adding SiO_2, the efficiency decreases. The initial thermoelectric fabricated without nanostructuring, in which the maximal thermoelectric figure of merit ZT = 1 at 390 K, is most efficient at temperatures above 350 K.

We report on the effect of Ni doping on the thermoelectric properties of p-type BiCuSeO oxyselenide, with layer structure composed of conductive (Cu2Se2)2-layers alternately stacked with insulating (Bi2O2)2+layers along c axis. After doping with Ni, enhanced electrical conductivity coupled with a moderate Seebeck coefficient leads to a power factor of ~231 μwm-1K-2at 873 K. Coupled to low thermal conductivity, ZT at 873 K is increased from 0.35 for pristine BiCuSeO to 0.39 for Bi0.95Ni0.05CuSeO. However, the efficiency of Ni doping in the insulating (Bi2O2)2+layer is low, and this doping only leads to a limited increase of the hole carriers concentration. Therefore Ni doped BiCuSeO has relatively low electrical conductivity which makes its thermoelectric figure of merit much lower than that of Ca, Sr, Ba and Pb doped BiCuSeO.

The results of studying the temperature dependences of electrical conductivity, thermoelectric coefficient, Hall mobility of charge carriers, total and electronic thermal conductivity, as well as phonon thermal resistance of alloys of (CuInSe2)1-x(In2Te3)x solid solutions at x=0.005 and 0.0075 are presented. The values ​​of these parameters for certain temperatures were used to calculate the values ​​of the thermoelectric figure of merit of the indicated compositions. It turned out that as the temperature rises, the thermoelectric figure of merit tends to grow strongly, from which it can be concluded that these materials can be used in the manufacture of thermoelements.

Having recently succeeded in synthesizing large single crystals of (Ca2CoO3)CoO2 (Co-349) with superior thermoelectric properties using a modified flux method, we have prepared a composite material of Co-349 powder and single crystals and examined its thermoelectric properties. The electrical conductivity σ of this composite, which contained 20 wt.% single crystals, was higher than that of a sample without the single crystals. While the achievable effect has yet to be fully realized, improved grain alignment and the effect of current bypassing grain boundaries through the large single crystals in the composite are thought to cause the increasing σ, which consequently results in an enhanced thermoelectric figure of merit of about 0.56 at 973 K in air.
