Problems solved by technology

The existing Seebeck coefficient testing equipment is usually only for bulk or thin film thermoelectric materials
Moreover, the sample stage of the bulk Seebeck coefficient test instrument is usually vertical, which is inconvenient to operate when placing the sample
In addition, the existing thin film testing equipment adopts non-contact laser irradiation heating method. Since the laser itself will have a certain impact on the physical properties of the material, it is easy to produce errors when

Abstract

The invention discloses a horizontal test device and method for Seebeck coefficient and conductivity of a thermoelectric material. The equipment provided by the invention is provided with two cooling systems, so that the Seebeck coefficient of a material when the temperature is lower than room temperature can be tested, and meanwhile, after the previous test is completed, the heater can be quickly recovered to a relatively low temperature, so that the test of a next sample can be quickly started, the sample test is simpler and more convenient, and the efficiency of testing a plurality of temperatures of a plurality of samples is improved. According to the invention, a contact heating mode is adopted, and a double-heating table mode is adopted, so that any temperature difference can be accurately and quickly provided for a test sample. The distance between the two heating blocks can be adjusted and controlled, the surface is provided with the groove, and a block sample can be placed in the groove, so that the purpose of testing the block sample and a film sample can be simultaneously met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of testing thermoelectric properties of materials, and in particular relates to a horizontal testing device and method for Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity of thermoelectric materials. Background technique [0002] A thermoelectric material is a material that can convert a temperature difference into an electric potential difference and vice versa. Its working principle is based on the thermoelectric effect of the material: when a temperature difference is established at both ends of the material, the carriers in the material will diffuse from the heat source (high temperature end) to the heat well (low temperature end) due to heat conduction, thereby generating a potential difference , and convert heat energy into electrical energy, which is the principle of thermoelectric power generation; on the contrary, when a voltage is applied to both ends of a thermoelectric material, one end of the material wil...
