Embodiment 1

[0039] In this example, a bismuth telluride-based bulk thermoelectric material was prepared by combining zone melting process, layer-by-layer covering pressurization and vibration-assisted process, cold isostatic pressing process, vacuum sintering process and hot isostatic pressing process, as follows:

[0040] (1) The bismuth telluride alloy was prepared by the zone melting method, which was exactly the same as the process of preparing the bismuth telluride alloy by the zone melting method in the comparative example;

[0041] (2) Using the bismuth telluride alloy prepared in step (1) as the initial raw material, pulverize, grind, and sieve to obtain a powder material with a particle size in the range of 180-380um, and weigh an appropriate amount of the powder;

[0042] (3) Polish the surface of the carrier in the pressurized and vibration-assisted orientation device layer by layer, and attach a layer of epoxy glue with a thickness of 20um as the adhesive;

[0043] (4) Put the...
