The phase composition and thermoelectric properties of solid solutions Pb16Sn2Ag2Te20 and Pb14Sn4Ag2Te20 are researched. Biphasic structure of the samples is installed, which providing to low values of thermal conductivity. Best samples have values of dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit ZT ≈ 0,55.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
