Abstract

The invention discloses a zone melting-directional solidification furnace and a semiconductor thermoelectric material synthesis method. The synthesis method comprises: carrying out zone melting-directional solidification vertical zone melting method; starting a heating body to heat a material to achieve a set temperature; starting a frequency conversion vibrator to modulate melt mass transfer andheat transfer; adjusting the moving speed of a heating body lifting device, and adjusting the temperature gradient; and carrying out annealing treatment. According to the present invention, by using the zone melting and directional solidification combined crystal growth method, the nucleation and growth process of the crystal is controlled through the coupling modulation of the three parameters such as the frequency conversion vibration frequency, the heating body vertical upward moving speed and the temperature, such that the nano-grain-incorporated bismuth telluride-based rod-like thermoelectric material with a ZT value of 1.7 at a temperature region range of 350-500 K; and the synthesized thermoelectric material can greatly promote the performances of semiconductor thermoelectric devices, and can be widely used in the fields of efficient waste heat recovery, active point temperature management and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of material synthesis, in particular to a zone melting-directional solidification furnace and a synthesis method of semiconductor thermoelectric materials. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric (TE) phenomenon is also called thermoelectric phenomenon. In 1822, Thomas Seebeck discovered the thermoelectric potential effect (the principle of TE material power generation); in 1834, Jean Peltier discovered the cooling effect at the junction of two different material conductors in the current loop (the principle of TE material refrigeration). Some good semiconductor TE materials were discovered in the 1950s. Usually the material with ZT≥0.5 is called TE material. The larger the ZT, the higher the efficiency of the TE device. In order to overcome the obstacle of lack of types of TE materials with high ZT value, people turn to the structural design of natural TE materials and the development of artificial syntheti...
