Problems solved by technology

The combination of dissimilar materials adopts direct sintering or welding, and the electrodes are usually bonded by spring compression or conductive paste (Ag paste, etc.). This structure cannot meet the requirements of industrial applications in terms of strength, heat resistance and durability. Require
At the same time, the increase of heterogeneous interfaces in multi-segment structure wide temperature range devices directly leads to the increase of interface thermal resistance and electrical resistance, which affects the improvement of the actual conversion efficiency of the device.
In addition, the complex structure of multi-segment wide-temperature range thermoelectric devices will also cause thermal stress concentration, resulting in a decrease in device reliability.

Abstract

The invention relates to a wide-temperature range thermoelectric generation device with a multi-segmented structure and a preparation method thereof. The thermoelectric generation device is formed bycombining at least two types of thermoelectric materials with excellent thermoelectric properties in different temperature zones along the temperature gradient direction; high-temperature terminal electrodes and low-temperature terminal electrodes are used for being connected with P-type single thermoelectric elements and N-type single thermoelectric elements in a diversion manner; and barrier layers and connection layers are arranged between the high-temperature terminal electrodes or the low-temperature terminal electrodes and the corresponding single thermoelectric elements and between thesingle thermoelectric elements of two adjacent temperature segments. According to the wide-temperature range thermoelectric generation device with the multi-segmented structure and the preparation method thereof, maximization of the energy conversion efficiency of the whole temperature zone can be achieved, and the reliability of the thermoelectric generation device is high.
