Thermoelectric Application

Electrical conductivity and thermopower of Bi2Sr3Co2Ox sintered bodies were first investigated in the temperature range 440–1060 K in air for high-temperature thermoelectric application. The samples fabricated by the sinter-forging method increased their bulk densities and electrical conductivity. The value of thermopower and the temperature dependence of electrical conductivity of the sinter-forged samples were close to that of the single crystal. Evaluating the thermal conductivity of the polycrystalline sample, we calculated a thermoelectric figure of merit Z to be 0.107 × 10−3 K−1 at 1060 K.

ABSTRACTWe report transport properties of polycrystalline TMGa3(TM = Fe and Ru) compounds in the temperature range 313K<T<973K. These compounds exhibit semiconductorlike behavior with relatively high Seebeck coefficient, electrical resistivity, and Hall carrier concentrations at room temperature in the range of 1017- 1018cm−3. Seebeck coefficient measurements reveal that FeGa3isn-type material, while the Seebeck coefficient of RuGa3changes signs rapidly from large positive values to large negative values around 450K. The thermal conductivity of these compounds is estimated to be 3.5Wm−1K−1at room temperature and decreased to 2.5Wm−1K−1for FeGa3and 2.0Wm−1K−1for RuGa3at high temperature. The resulting thermoelectric figure of merit,ZT, at 945K for RuGa3reaches 0.18.

AbstractNanocomposite thermoelectrics based on Bi_0.45Sb_1.55Te_2.985 solid solution of p -type conductivity are fabricated by the hot pressing of nanopowders of this solid solution with the addition of SiO_2 microparticles. Investigations of the thermoelectric properties show that the thermoelectric power of the nanocomposites increases in a wide temperature range of 80–420 K, while the thermal conductivity considerably decreases at 80–320 K, which, despite a decrease in the electrical conductivity, leads to an increase in the thermoelectric efficiency in the nanostructured material without the SiO_2 addition by almost 50% (at 300 K). When adding SiO_2, the efficiency decreases. The initial thermoelectric fabricated without nanostructuring, in which the maximal thermoelectric figure of merit ZT = 1 at 390 K, is most efficient at temperatures above 350 K.

The results of studying the temperature dependences of electrical conductivity, thermoelectric coefficient, Hall mobility of charge carriers, total and electronic thermal conductivity, as well as phonon thermal resistance of alloys of (CuInSe2)1-x(In2Te3)x solid solutions at x=0.005 and 0.0075 are presented. The values ​​of these parameters for certain temperatures were used to calculate the values ​​of the thermoelectric figure of merit of the indicated compositions. It turned out that as the temperature rises, the thermoelectric figure of merit tends to grow strongly, from which it can be concluded that these materials can be used in the manufacture of thermoelements.

Chalcopyrite Compound

Here we report the thermoelectric properties of a wide–gap chalcopyrite compound AgInSe2, and observed the remarkable improvement in electrical conductivity σ, due to the bandgap (Eg = 1.12 eV) reduction compared to In2Se3. The improvement in σ is directly responsible for the enhancement of thermoelectric figure of merit ZT, though the thermal conductivity is much higher at 500 ~ 724 K. The maximum ZT value is 0.34 at 724 K, increasing by a factor of 4, indicating that this chalcopyrite compound is of a potential thermoelectric candidate if further optimizations of chemical compositions and structure are made.

In this study, nanometer WO3 powder was uniformly dispersed into the Cu2SnSe3 powder by ball milling process, and the WO3/Cu2SnSe3 thermoelectric composite was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The results showed that the nano-WO3 particles were mainly distributed in the grain boundary of Cu2SnSe3 matrix, and the grain growth of Cu2SnSe3 was inhibited. The addition of nano-WO3 could enhance the electrical conductivity of Cu2SnSe3, and while the Seebeck coefficient increased slightly for the 0.4% WO3/Cu2SnSe3 composite. The thermal conductivity was not decreased until the content of WO3 exceeded 1.6%. The highest thermoelectric figure of merit ZT of 0.177 was achieved at 700 K for 0.4% WO3/Cu2SnSe3 composite. The enhancement of ZT value of WO3/Cu2SnSe3 thermoelectric material was mainly attributed to the improvement of the electrical properties.

ABSTRACTThe concept of carrier pocket engineering applied to Si/Ge superlattices is tested experimentally. A set of strain-symmetrized Si(20Å)/Ge(20Å) superlattice samples were grown by MBE and the Seebeck coefficient S, electrical conductivity σ, and Hall coefficient were measured in the temperature range between 4K and 400K for these samples. The experimental results are in good agreement with the carrier pocket engineering model for temperatures below 300K. The thermoelectric figure of merit for the entire superlattice, Z3DT, is estimated from the measured S and σ, and using an estimated value for the thermal conductivity of the superlattice. Based on the measurements of these homogeneously doped samples and on model calculations, including the detailed scattering mechanisms of the samples, projections are made for δ-doped and modulation-doped samples [(001) oriented Si(20Å)/Ge(20Å) superlattices] to yield Z3DT ≈ 0.49 at 300K.
