Doped polycrystalline SnSe could have zT 0.6 at 750 K, suggesting good potential for thermoelectrics. Challenges come from difficulty in doping and hysteresis in resistivity.

N-type Bi2Te3 based thermoelectric compound was prepared by spark plasma sintering with a temperature range of 340~460°C and powder size of ~75㎛, 76~150㎛, 151~250㎛. Thermoelectric properties of the compound were measured as a function of the sintering temperature and powder size. With increasing sintering temperature, the electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity of the compound greatly changed because of the increase in relative density. The Seebeck coefficient and electrical resistivity were varied largely with increasing powder size. Therefore, the compound sintered at 460°C, with the powder of ~75㎛, showed a figure of merit of 2.44 x 10-3/K. Also, the bending strength was 75MPa.

ABSTRACTThe crystal structures and thermoelectric properties of Ba-Ge type-I clathrate compounds (Ba8GaXGe46-X and Ba8Ga16-YInYGe30) have been investigated as a function of Ga and In contents. Ba8GaXGe46-X alloys have a crystal structure that contains an ordered arrangement of Ge vacancies, forming a superstructure based on the normal type-I structure until X reaches 3, whereas they have the normal type-I structure when X exceeds 3. The dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) increases with the increase in the Ga content, exhibiting the highest value of 0.49 for Ba8Ga16Ge30. The power factor for Ba8Ga10In6Ge30 is 1.5 times that for Ba8Ga16Ge30 so that the In containing alloy exhibits a ZT value as high as 1.03 at 700°C.
