Abstract

Thermoelectric conversion materials, expressed by the following formula: Bi1-xMxCuwOa-yQ1yTeb-zQ2z. Here, M is at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ba, Sr, Ca, Mg, Cs, K, Na, Cd, Hg, Sn, Pb, Mn, Ga, In, Tl, As and Sb; Q1 and Q2 are at least one element selected from the group consisting of S, Se, As and Sb; x, y, z, w, a, and b are 0!<=x<1, 0<w!<=1, 0.2<a<4, 0!<=y<4, 0.2<b<4 and 0!<=z<4. These thermoelectric conversion materials may be used for thermoelectric conversion elements, where they may replace thermoelectric conversion materials in common use, or be used along with thermoelectric conversion materials in common use.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention provides a novel compound semiconductor and its preparation method, as well as a solar cell and a thermoelectric conversion element using the novel compound semiconductor. Background technique [0002] A compound semiconductor is not a single element like germanium, but a compound obtained by combining at least two elements and thus operating as a semiconductor. Various compound semiconductors have been developed and applied in many fields. Compound semiconductors are typically used in light emitting devices such as LEDs or laser diodes using the photoelectric conversion effect, solar cells, and thermoelectric conversion elements using the Peltier Effect. [0003] Among them, environmentally friendly solar cells that do not require any energy other than sunlight have been intensively studied as future alternative energy sources. Solar cells are generally classified into silicon solar cells using a single element mainly silicon, compound...
