AbstractThe Ag1-x(Pb1-ySny)mSb1-zTem+2 compounds have been found to exhibit high performance p-type thermoelectric properties and are now being considered for practical applications. In this paper, various m values and silver concentrations were investigated to determine the effect on thermoelectric properties. Also, the charge-compensated compounds were studied in order to eliminate the problem of excess tellurium evaporation at high temperature.

AbstractPolycrystalline skutterudite Ba0.4Co4Sb11.7Te0.3 with a bcc crystal structure was prepared by the High-Pressure and High-Temperature (HPHT) method. The study explored a chemical method for introducing Ba atoms into the voids of CoSb3 to optimize the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT in the system of Ba0.4Co4Sb11.7Te0.3. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, electron microprobe analysis, and thermoelectric properties measurement. The electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficients and thermal conductivities of the samples were measured in the temperature range of 300–743 K. The power factor and the figure of merit, ZT, of the samples all increased with the increasing temperature. A dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit of 0.87 at 743 K was achieved for n-type Ba0.4Co4Sb11.7Te0.3 at last. The results indicated Ba-filled CoSb3 prepared by HPHT method is an effective method to greatly enhance the thermoelectric properties of skutterudite compounds.

Synthesis Time

AbstractN-type polycrystalline skutterudite compounds Ni0.15Co3.85Sb12 and Fe0.2Ni0.15Co3.65Sb12 with the bcc crystal structure were synthesized by high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) method. The synthesis time was sharply reduced to approximately half an hour. Typical microstructures connected with lattice deformations and dislocations were incorporated in the samples of Ni0.15Co3.85Sb12 and Fe0.2Ni0.15Co3.65Sb12 after HPHT. Electrical and thermal transport properties were meticulously researched in the temperature range of 300 K to 700 K. The Fe0.2Ni0.15Co3.65Sb12 sample shows a lower thermal conductivity than that of Ni0.15Co3.85Sb12. The dimensionless thermoelectric figure-of-merit (zT) reaches the maximal values of 0.52 and 0.35 at 600 K and 700 K respectively, for Ni0.15Co3.85Sb12 and Fe0.2Ni0.15Co3.65Sb12 samples synthesized at 1 GPa.

Optimum Formula

[Formula: see text] ceramic samples have a structure similar to phonon glass electronic crystals, and their thermoelectric properties can be effectively adjusted through repeated grinding and sintering. The results show that multi-sintering can make their grain refined and increase their grain boundary, which will effectively increase density and phonon scattering. Finally, multi-sintering can reduce the resistivity and thermal conductivity, thus obviously improve thermoelectric figure of merit [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. The optimum [Formula: see text] value of 0.26 is achieved at 923 K by the third sintered sample.
