Thermoelectric materials have been expected as a critical underlying technology for developing an autonomous power generation system driven at near room temperature. For this sake, Fe3Al2Si3 intermetallic compound is a promising candidate, though its high lattice thermal conductivity is a bottleneck toward practical applications. Herein, we have performed the first-principles calculations to clarify the microscopic mechanism of thermal transport and establish effective ways to reduce the lattice thermal conductivity of Fe3Al2Si3. Our calculations show that the lowest-lying optical mode has a significant contribution from Al atom vibration. It should correspond to large thermal displacements Al atoms. However, these behaviors do not directly cause an increase of the 3-phonon scattering rate. The calculated lattice thermal conductivity shows a typical temperature dependence and moderate magnitude. From the calculated thermal conductivity spectrum and cumulative thermal conductivity, we can see that there is much room to reduce the lattice thermal conductivity. We can expect that heavy-element doping on Al site and controlling fine microstructure are effective strategies to decrease the lattice thermal conductivity. This work suggests useful information to manipulate the thermal transport of Fe3Al2Si3, which will make this material closer to practical use.
