Agglomerates of aligned crystals of CaxCo2O4 with a layer of CoO2 were grown using a chloride flux technique, and their thermoelectric properties in air were determined. The agglomerates take the form of a very thin flakelike cluster of crystals with a typical size of almost 3 × 2 × 0.07 mm. The values of thermoelectric power along the ab-plane are larger than 200 μV K−1 at temperatures above 873 K and reach almost 300 μV K−1 at 973 K. The temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity along the ab-plane shows bends around 450 and 825 K, and the ln ρab−T−1 curve followed an Arrhenius-type behavior below 450 K. Temperature dependence of thermal conductivity indicated that stacking faults along the c axis induce phonon scattering like that in a misfit-layered structure. The effect of the CoO2 layer on thermoelectric performance is discussed in comparison with related compounds.

ABSTRACTWe present the structure and thermoelectric properties of the new quaternary selenides K1+xM4–2xBi7+xSe15 (M = Sn, Pb) and K1-xSn5-xBi11+xSe22. The compounds K1+xM4-2xBi7+xSe15 (M= Sn, Pb) crystallize isostructural to A1+xPb4-2xSb7+xSe15 with A = K, Rb, while K1-xSn5-xBi11+xSe22 reveals a new structure type. In both structure types fragments of the Bi2Te3-type and the NaCl-type are connected to a three-dimensional anionic framework with K+ ions filled tunnels. The two structures vary by the size of the NaCl-type rods and are closely related to β-K2Bi8Se13 and K2.5Bi8.5Se14. The thermoelectric properties of K1+xM4-2xBi7+xSe15 (M = Sn, Pb) and K1-xSn5-xBi11+xSe22 were explored on single crystal and ingot samples. These compounds are narrow gap semiconductors and show n-type behavior with moderate Seebeck coefficients. They have very low thermal conductivity due to an extensive disorder of the metal atoms and possible “rattling” K+ ions.

Ysz Coating

Effect of La2O3 addition on thermal conductivity and high temperature stability of YSZ coating produced by EB-PVD was investigated. La2O3 was selected as an additive because it had a significant effect on suppressing densification of YSZ. The developed coating showed extremely low thermal conductivity as well as high resistance to sintering. Microstructural observation revealed that the coating had fine feather-like subcolumns and nanopores, which contributed to limit thermal transport. These nanostructures were thought to be formed by suppressing densification during deposition.

Bulk CoCrFeNiNb0.45 eutectic high entropy alloy (EHEA) with ultrafine-lamellar microstructure shows outstanding thermal stability. The EHEA offers opportunities for the development of thermoelectric materials. In this paper, the thermoelectric properties of a CoCrFeNiNbx (x = 0, 0.25, and 0.45) EHEA system were investigated. The results indicated that the electrical conductivity decreased with a rise in Nb content in the CoCrFeNiNbx alloys, which resulted from the increased eutectic structure and phase interface. Moreover, the thermal conductivity increased with increased Nb content at low temperature (T ≤ 473 K), while thermal conductivity decreased at high temperature (T > 573 K). The CoCrFeNiNb0.45 full eutectic high entropy alloy exhibited the lowest thermal conductivity and higher thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) at a high temperature (T > 573 K), which shows great promise for the thermoelectric application at high temperature.

Effects of Ba filling fraction and Ni content on the thermoelectric properties of n-type BayNixCo4−xSb12 (x = 0−0.1, y = 0−0.4) were investigated at temperature range of 300 to 900 K. Thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ba filling fraction and temperature. When y was fixed at 0.3, thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ni content and reached a minimum value at about x = 0.05. Lattice thermal conductivity decreased with increasing Ni content, monotonously (y ≤ 0.1). Electron concentration and electrical conductivity increased with increasing Ba filling fraction and Ni content. Seebeck coefficient increased with increasing temperature and decreased with increasing Ba filling fraction and Ni content. The maximum ZT value of 1.25 was obtained at about 900 K for n-type Ba0.3Ni0.05Co3.95Sb12.

AbstractThe thermoelectric properties of W-substituted CaMn1-xWxO3-δ (x = 0.01, 0.03; 0.05) samples, prepared by soft chemistry, were investigated from 300 K to 1000 K and compared to Nb-substituted CaMn0.98Nb0.02O3-δ. All compositions exhibit both an increase in absolute Seebeck coefficient and electrical resistivity with temperature. Moreover, compared to the Nb-substituted sample, the thermal conductivity of the W-substituted samples was strongly reduced. This reduction is attributed to the nearly two times greater mass of tungsten. Consequently, a ZT of 0.19 was found in CaMn0.97W0.03O3-δ at 1000 K, which was larger than ZT exhibited by the 2% Nb-doped sample.
