Abstract

The invention relates to an n-type Mg3Sb2 alloy thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof. The chemical formula of the alloy thermoelectric material is YxMg3.05-xSbBi, wherein x is greater than or equal to 0.002 and less than or equal to 0.03; the method is characterized by comprising the steps of taking high-purity simple substance as a raw material; proportioning according to the stoichiometric ratio in the chemical formula; carrying out vacuum packaging on a tantalum tube, high-temperature melting, annealing and heat treatment; cutting into pieces with the size of 3 mm; and performing vacuum hot-pressing sintering and slowly cooling to obtain the alloy thermoelectric material. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that doping of the yttrium is improved by carrying out solid-solution on magnesium bismuthide, anion electrons are introduced, so that the carrier concentration and the lattice heat conductivity can be simultaneously regulated and controlled, and meanwhile, the content of magnesium oxide in the grain boundary of the N-type Mg3Sb2 alloy is reduced by utilizing tantalum packaging smelting, so that the high migration rate is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of alloy thermoelectric material preparation, and relates to an N-type trimagnesium antimony alloy thermoelectric material and its preparation. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric semiconductor materials, as a new type of energy material with zero emissions and no rotating parts, can realize the conversion between waste heat and electric energy, and are considered to be an effective solution to improve the increasingly serious energy crisis. The bottleneck that limits the large-scale application of thermoelectric semiconductor materials is their relatively low conversion efficiency, which can usually be measured by the dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit zT, zT=S 2 σT / κ, where: T is the absolute temperature, S is the Seebeck coefficient, σ is the electrical conductivity, κ is the thermal conductivity, determined by the electronic thermal conductivity κ E and lattice thermal conductivity κ ...
