Abstract

The invention provides a skutterudite-based thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof. The chemical formula of the thermoelectric material is as following: M<x>CoSb<3+y>ZnO, wherein thevalue range of x meets the condition that x is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.4, y is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 3%, and y is the mass percent, accounting for the M<x>CoSb3 substrate, of ZnO; and M is one or more of doped alkali metal, alkaline-earth metal and rare earth element. According to the skutterudite-based thermoelectric material and the preparationmethod thereof, a proper quantity of zinc oxide nanoparticles are evenly dispersed in the skutterudite-based thermoelectric material, thus selective scattering to low-frequency phonons can be enhanced, the lattice thermal conductivity of the skutterudite-based thermoelectric material is effectively decreased, meanwhile, zinc oxide has the high carrier mobility, it can be ensured that the seebeck coefficient and the electrical conductivity of the thermoelectric material are maintained in a stable variation range, and thus the thermoelectric property of the whole skutterudite-based thermoelectric material is improved advantageously.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of thermoelectric materials, in particular to a skutterudite-based thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric conversion technology is a technology that uses the Seebeck effect and Peltier effect of semiconductor materials to directly convert energy. The conversion efficiency mainly depends on the dimensionless performance index ZT value (ZT=S 2 σT / k, where S is the Seebeck coefficient, σ is the electrical conductivity, k is the thermal conductivity, and T is the absolute temperature). The higher the ZT value of the material, the higher the thermoelectric conversion efficiency. The original device made of thermoelectric material has the characteristics of small size, high reliability, long life, simple manufacturing process and environmental friendliness, so it is expected to be widely used in waste heat power generation, aerospace power supply, me...
