ABSTRACTIn order to investigate the thermoelectric properties of Re-doped β-FeSi2 (Fe1-xRexSi2), Ir-doped β-FeSi2 (Fe1-xIrxSi2), and Pt-doped β-FeSi2 (Fe1-xPtxSi2), the electrical resistivity, the Seebeck coefficient, and the thermal conductivity of these samples have been measured in the temperature range between 300 and 1150 K. Fe1-xRexSi2 is p-type, while Fe1-xIrxSi2 and Fe1-xPt xSi2 are n-type over the measured temperature range. The solubility limits of dopant are estimated to be 0.2at% for Fe1-xRexSi2, 0.5at% for Fe1-xIrxSi2, and 1.9at% for Fe1-xPtxSi2. A maximum ZT value of 0.14 was obtained for Fe1-xPt xSi2 (x=0.03) at the temperature 847 K.

Iron disilicide (-FeSi2, and -FeSi2+Cu0.1wt%) were prepared by a field-activated pressure assisted synthesis(FAPAS) method from elemental powders and the thermoelectric properties were investigated. The average grain size of these products is about 0.3m. The thermal conductivity of these materials is 3-4wm-1K-1in the temperature range 300-725K. These products’ figure of merit is 28.50×10-4 in the temperature range 330-450K. The additions of Cu promote the phase transformation of -Fe2Si5 + -FeSi → β-FeSi2 and shorten the annealing time. It is proved that FAPAS is a benign and rapid process for sintering of -FeSi2 thermoelectric materials.
