Problems solved by technology

The growth of single crystal has strict requirements on process and so on, and the cycle is longer, and the mechanical properties of single crystal SiGe are worse than those of polycrystalline SiGe.
However, the current ball-milled alloyed SiGe thermoelectric materials have low production efficiency and high production costs, and it is urgent to develop a method for preparing SiGe thermoelectric materials with high efficiency and low cost.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a SiGe thermoelectric material. According to the method, Si powder, Ge powder, B powder or P blocks are mixed according to a determined molar ratio; obtained mixtures are loaded into hard steel ball mill tanks under the protection of an Ar inert atmosphere; ball-milling and alloying are performed on the mixtures through using a planetary ball mill, sothat single-phase SiGe thermoelectric material powder is obtained; the single-phase SiGe thermoelectric material powder is subjected to discharge plasma sintering at 1150 DEG C, so that dense blockscan be obtained. The P type and N type SiGe alloy prepared by the method for preparing the SiGe thermoelectric material of the present invention have high electrical conductivity, high Seebeck coefficients and high power factors. The method for preparing the SiGe thermoelectric material of the invention has the advantages of high synthesis speed, simplicity, convenience, high efficiency and wide application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of thermoelectric power generation, and in particular relates to a method for preparing SiGe thermoelectric materials. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric materials are energy conversion materials that directly convert thermal energy into electrical energy using the Seebeck effect. It has the advantages of long service life, no vibration and noise when working, strong environmental adaptability, and no need for maintenance. At present, in the process of energy utilization, a large amount of energy is wasted in the form of waste heat. If thermoelectric materials are used to recover waste heat from industry and automobile exhaust to generate electricity, the energy utilization rate will be improved and the energy crisis will be alleviated. In addition, in the field of deep space exploration and in harsh environments such as deep sea, underground, and north and south poles, the use of solar cells and chemical b...
