Problems solved by technology

Since In 2 Se 3 The base material is anisotropic, so by changing the preparation process, for example, the Boerchmann method, the zone melting method, and the hot extrusion method can obtain obvious anisotropic materials, but the production scale is limited
Preparation of In 2 Se 3 Base films and nanowires not only require high equipment and low productivity, but also the application of the obtained materials is difficult, so the production of low-dimensional materials and their devices has great limitations

Abstract

The invention provides a metal selenide thermoelectric material for intermediate temperate and a preparation process thereof, which relates to the field of thermoelectric materials. The design point is as follows: the chemical formula of the thermoelectric material is InxAgySe3, wherein x + y=2, 0.05<= y <=0.25. The preparation process comprises the following steps: putting elemental In, Ag and Se into a vacuum quartz tube; synthesizing for 20-28 hours at the temperature of 1000-1100 DEG C; cooling the InxAgySe3 cast ingot in a furnace to 600-650 DEG C, and then, immediately quenching in water; crushing and ball-milling the quenched InxAgySe3 cast ingot; carrying out spark plasma sintering to prepare a block, wherein the sintering temperature is 550-650 DEG C, the sintering pressure is 40-60MPa, and the holding time is 8-12 minutes; coating a sodium silicate concentrated solution on the surface of the sintered block material; drying; and then, annealing for 20-28 hours in the vacuum quartz tube, wherein the annealing temperature is 180-200 DEG C. The material provided by the invention is prepared by using a conventional powder metallurgy method, thus the process is simple; the transition metal element Ag is used for replacing the In element in the In2Se3 thermoelectric alloy in an equimolar mode, thus the cost is lower; and the material has environment-friendly characteristics and does not have noise, thus the material is suitable for being used as an environment-friendly energy material.
