Preparation and thermoelectric properties of AgPbmSbTe2+m alloys

Transport properties of Ag0.8Pb18SbTe20 prepared by high pressure and high temperature

“…The high figure of merit was originated from nanocrystals of AgSb-rich phase embedded in a PbTe-rich matrix [1]. After that, many other pursuers were inspired by the progress and started to study the AgPb 18 SbTe 20 system by many methods [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. However, the high figure of merit of Hus is difficult to replicate [8][9][10][11].…”

However, the high figure of merit of Hus is difficult to replicate [8][9][10][11]. The main reason is that the power factor is too low as a result of the high electrical resistivity the sample exhibits [8][9][10][11].…”

“…However, the high figure of merit of Hus is difficult to replicate [8][9][10][11]. The main reason is that the power factor is too low as a result of the high electrical resistivity the sample exhibits [8][9][10][11]. Recently, Li and coworkers studied AgPb 18 SbTe 20 system by combining mechanical alloying (MA) and spark plasma sintering (SPS).…”

Synthesis and thermoelectric properties of BaMn2Sb2 single crystals

“…For thermoelectric generation application, many efforts have been made on Si-Ge alloy [2], boron carbides [3], filledskutterudites [4,5], type-I Ge-based clathrates [6,7], Zn 3 Sb 4 [8], Na x Co 2 O 4 [9], and PbTe-based materials [10][11][12]. However, Zintl phase compounds have recently attracted much attention owing to their good thermoelectric properties at high temperatures.…”

On the Way to the Creation of Thermoelectric Converters on the Basis of Nanoobjects Such as Quantum Dots, Nanowires and Superlattices

“…LAST-m нанопорошки можуть бути одержані методом гідротермального синтезу [94]. У більш пізніх роботах [95][96][97] для LAST-m матеріалів були отримані значення ZT > 1,7 при 700 К.…”
