Abstract

The invention relates to a Nano SiC/P-type silicon germanium alloy-based thermoelectric composite material and a preparation method thereof. The thermoelectric composite material is composed of P-type silicon germanium alloy and Nano SiC particles uniformly dispersed on the grain boundary and/or inside the grains of the P-type silicon germanium alloy. The chemical formula of the P-type silicon germanium alloy is Si(80)Ge(20)B(x), wherein 0.2<=x<=2.0. The volume percentage of the Nano SiC particles is 0.3-2.0% that of the P-type silicon germanium alloy. The Nano SiC particles and the P-type silicon germanium alloy are composited to prepare the thermoelectric composite material. The lattice thermal conductivity of the material is reduced significantly on the premise that the power factor does not change much. The thermoelectric property of the material in the whole range of temperature is improved. In addition, the preparation method provided by the invention is simple and fast, has high utilization ratio of raw materials, and has a good industrialization prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a thermoelectric composite material and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a nano-silicon carbide / P-type silicon-germanium alloy-based thermoelectric composite material and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of thermoelectric materials. Background technique [0002] As an important part of deep space probes, the study of space energy systems is of great significance. The radioisotope thermoelectric generator has become the preferred energy source for deep space exploration due to its simple structure, no mechanical transmission, self-supplied energy without care, etc. It is a power generation device that uses the Seebeck effect of materials to directly convert radioisotope decay heat into electrical energy. The core of this conversion is thermoelectric materials. [0003] The performance of thermoelectric materials mainly depends on the material's dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit ZT, w...
