Abstract

An elemental tellurium-based composite thermoelectric material belongs to the field of thermoelectric materials, and is characterized in that the chemical formula of the thermoelectric material is Te<1-x>(Sb2Se3)x, wherein x is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.2. The preparation method comprises the following steps: weighing the raw material components according to the molarfraction of the chemical formula, and packaging a Te block, Sb powder and Se powder in a carbon-plated quartz tube in vacuum; putting the quartz tube into a vertical tube furnace for smelting; performing annealing treatment; and finally, grounding the obtained cast ingot into fine powder, and conducting spark plasma sintering to form a compact block, wherein the compact block has very low heat conductivity and high thermoelectric performance, and the thermoelectric figure of merit reaches 0.95. The thermoelectric performance of the elemental tellurium-based composite thermoelectric material isimproved through a smelting process, an annealing process and a spark plasma sintering process. Compared with the prior art, the antimony selenide component is introduced, so that the carrier concentration and the lattice thermal conductivity are synergistically optimized, the technological process is simple and controllable, and the cost is low.
