Embodiment 1

[0032] Using silver (Ag) powder, antimony (Sb) powder, lead (Pb) powder, tellurium (Te) powder as raw materials, according to Ag 0.8 Pb 22 SbT 20 Weigh a total of 20 g of powder, put it into a stainless steel ball mill jar (volume 250 mL), and add stainless steel balls with a diameter of 10 mm (the weight ratio of balls to powder is 18:1). The ball mill tank was filled with Ar as a protective gas, and Ag was prepared by mechanical alloying (MA) reaction in a planetary ball mill (QM-2, Nanjing University Instrument Factory) for 5 hours (rotation speed: 300r / min). 0.8 Pb 22 SbT 20 compound powder. Such as figure 1 As shown in (a), after the above MA treatment, the obtained powder becomes a single phase and has a cubic structure, and each diffraction peak can be calibrated according to the PbTe phase. The obtained powder is sintered at a pressure of 50Mpa at 400°C and kept for 2 minutes, and its relative density is all above 98% (see figure 2 SEM photo shown). Such as f...

Embodiment 3

[0036] Using silver (Ag) powder, antimony (Sb) powder, lead (Pb) powder, tellurium (Te) powder as raw materials, according to Ag 0.8 Pb 22 SbT 20 , Ag 0.8 Pb 22 SbT 20 and Ag 0.8 Pb 22 SbT 20 A total of 20 g of powder was weighed to prepare three groups of samples with different Ag contents. Powder synthesis and SPS sintering conditions are the same as in Example 1. The room temperature resistivities of samples with silver contents of 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 are 0.125m, 0.185m, 0.175×10 -3 m. The resistivities of the two samples with Ag contents of 0.4 and 0.6 are too high, and the samples with Ag contents of about 0.8 have much lower resistivities than the other two compositions. Therefore, its comprehensive thermoelectric performance is high, and the dimensionless figure of merit ZT is as high as 1.37.
