Problems solved by technology

However, the three physical parameters that determine the thermoelectric figure of merit of thermoelectric materials, Seebeck coefficient, resistivity and thermal conductivity, are interrelated, so it is difficult to independently control a certain parameter to achieve a significant improvement in thermoelectric figure of merit. – The main reason why the power conversion efficiency remains low

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of thermoelectric materials, in particular to a novel Zintl phase thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric material is a material that can convert waste heat into electrical energy. It has no transmission parts, no noise, and no pollution, so it has attracted extensive attention in recent years. The thermoelectric energy conversion efficiency is determined by the Carnot efficiency of the thermoelectric material and the thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT), ZT=S 2 T / ρκ, S is the Seebeck coefficient, ρ is the resistivity, κ is the thermal conductivity, and T is the absolute temperature. The thermal conductivity is determined by the lattice thermal conductivity (κ L ), electronic thermal conductivity (κ e ) and bipolar thermal conductivity (κ B ) consists of three parts, a good thermoelectric material must have high Seebeck coefficient, low resistivity and ...
