Graphite/poly(3,4-ethyenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanocomposites were prepared by an in-situ oxidative polymerization process. The electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient of the graphite/PEDOT nanocomposites with different content of graphite were measured in the temperature range from 300 K to 380 K. The results show that as the content of graphite increased from 0 to 37.2 wt %, the electrical conductivity of the nanocomposites increased sharply from 3.6 S/cm to 80.1 S/cm, while the Seebeck coefficient kept almost the same value (in the range between 12.0 μV/K to 15.1 μV/K) at 300 K, which lead to an increased power factor. The Seebeck coefficient of the nanocomposites increased from 300 K to 380 K, while the electrical conductivity did not substantially depend on the measurement temperature. As a result, a power factor of 3.2 μWm−1 K−2 at 380 K was obtained for the nanocomposites with 37.2 wt % graphite.

Abstract The effect of Ti doped at Cu site on the thermoelectric properties of BiCuSeO was studied by experimental method and first principles calculation. The results show that Ti doping can cause the lattice contraction and decrease the lattice constant. Ti doping can increase the band gap and lengthen the Cu/Ti-Se bond, resulting in the decrease of carrier concentration. Ti doping can reduce the effective mass and the Bi-Se bond length, correspondingly improve the carrier mobility. Ti doping can decrease the density of states of Cu-3d and Se-4p orbitals at the top of valence band, but Ti-4p orbitals can obviously increase the density of states at the top of valence band and finally increase the electrical conductivity in the whole temperature range. With the decrease of effective mass, Ti doping would reduce the Seebeck coefficient, but the gain effect caused by the increase of electrical conductivity is more than the benefit reduction effect caused by the decrease of Seebeck coefficient, and the power factor shows an upward trend. Ti doping can reduce Young's modulus, lead to the increase of defect scattering and strain field, correspondingly reduce the lattice thermal conductivity and total thermal conductivity. It is greatly increased for the ZT values in the middle and high temperature range, with the highest value of 1.04 at 873 K.

In the present study, n-type (Bi2Se3)x(Bi2Te3)1-x crystals with various chemical compositions were fabricated by the zone melting method. Thermoelectric properties, including Seebeck coefficient (α), electrical conductivity (σ) and thermal conductivity (κ), were measured in the temperature range of 300-500 K. The influence of the variations of Bi2Te3 and Bi2Se3 content on thermoelectric properties was studied. The increase of Bi2Se3 content (x) caused an increase in carrier concentration and thus an increase of σ and a decrease of α. The maximum figure of merit (ZT = α2σT/κ) of 0.87 was obtained at about 325 K for the composition of 93%Bi2Te3-7%Bi2Se3 with doping TeI4.

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.
