Ba8Cu6Ge[Formula: see text]Si[Formula: see text] were successfully synthesized by a simple high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) method to investigate the microstructures and thermoelectric (TE) properties. After high pressure synthesis, a highly dense bulk material with lots of fine-layered structure, lattice defects and disorders has been obtained. As expected, the thermal conductivity decreased greatly and the ZT value has been improved significantly, which reaches up to 0.43 at around 773 K. Comparing with other methods, HPHT could shorten the synthesis time from several days to half an hour. It reveals that the HPHT method will become an effective approach for optimizing the TE performance of these materials.

High-pressure technique is an effective route to synthesize thermoelectric materials and tune transport properties simultaneously. In this work, S-doped copper–selenium compounds [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] were successfully synthesized by high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) technology in just 30 min. [Formula: see text] samples show layered morphology composed of abundant pores and lattice defects. The appropriate S introduction ([Formula: see text] and 0.03) can effectively enhance Seebeck coefficient and reduce the thermal conductivity of [Formula: see text]. Compared with the pure [Formula: see text] sample, [Formula: see text] exhibits a 30% lower thermal conductivity, but the decline of power factor by the distinctly increased electrical resistivity at high temperature results in a smaller zT at temperature [Formula: see text] K. The variations of thermoelectric properties are resulted from the competitive effects between S-doping and actual composition change (Cu:S). It indicates that S-doping is not so effective in improving the zT value of [Formula: see text] materials by high-pressure synthesis.
