This contribution deals with the mechanochemical synthesis, characterization, and thermoelectric properties of tetrahedrite-based materials, Cu12-xMxSb4S13 (M = Fe2+, Zn2+, Cd2+; x = 0, 1.5, 2). High-energy mechanical milling allows obtaining pristine and substituted tetrahedrites, after short milling under ambient conditions, of stoichiometric mixtures of the corresponding commercially available binary sulfides, i.e., Cu2S, CuS, Sb2S3, and MS (M = Fe2+, Zn2+, Cd2+). All the target materials but those containing Cd were obtained as single-phase products; some admixture of a hydrated cadmium sulfate was also identified by XRD as a by-product when synthesizing Cu10Cd2Sb4S13. The as-obtained products were thermally stable when firing in argon up to a temperature of 350–400 °C. Overall, the substitution of Cu(II) by Fe(II), Zn(II), or Cd(II) reduces tetrahedrites’ thermal and electrical conductivities but increases the Seebeck coefficient. Unfortunately, the values of the thermoelectric figure of merit obtained in this study are in general lower than those found in the literature for similar samples obtained by other powder processing methods; slight compositional changes, undetected secondary phases, and/or deficient sintering might account for some of these discrepancies.

Bulk Fe4Sb12 and Fe3CoSb12 were prepared by sintering at 600 °C. The phases of samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and their thermoelectric properties were tested by electric constant instrument and laser thermal constant instrument. Experimental results show that, the major phases of bulk samples are skutterudite with impurity phase FeSb2. The electric resistivities of the samples increase with temperature rising at 100~500 °C. The bulk samples are P-type semiconductor materials. The Seebeck coefficients of the bulk Fe4Sb12 are higher than those of bulk Fe3CoSb12 samples at 100~200 °C but lower at 300~500 °C. The power factor of the bulk Fe4Sb12 samples decreases with temperature rising while that of bulk Fe3CoSb12 samples increases with temperature rising at 100~500 °C. The thermal conductivities of the bulk Fe4Sb12 samples are relatively higher than those of and Fe3CoSb12, which maximum value is up to 0.0974 Wm-1K-1. The ZT value of bulk Fe3CoSb12 increases with temperature rising at 100~500 °C, the maximum value is up to 0.031.The ZT values of the bulk Fe4Sb12 samples are higher than those of bulk Fe3CoSb12 at 100~300 °C while lower at 400~500 °C.

P-type Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 compounds doped with 3wt% Te were fabricated by spark plasma sintering and their mechanical and thermoelectric properties were investigated. The sintered compounds with the bending strength of more than 50MPa and the figure-of-merit 2.9×10-3/K were obtained by controlling the mixing ratio of large powders (PL) and small powders (PS). Compared with the conventionally prepared single crystal thermoelectric materials, the bending strength was increased up to more than three times and the figure-of-merit Z was similar those of single crystals. It is expected that the mechanical properties could be improved by using hybrid powders without degradation of thermoelectric properties.
