摘要: 采用高温熔融/热处理并结合SPS烧结工艺制备了Yb名义组分为0.6的YbyCo4Sb12/Yb2O3填充方钴矿复合材料, 纳米或亚微米Yb2O3颗粒主要分散在方钴矿晶界上。研究了873 K下低氧分压高温处理对样品的热电性能与微结构的影响。热处理后样品的电导率、赛贝克系数、热导率基本保持不变, 块体材料内部纳米与亚微米尺度微观结构未发生明显变化, 未发现填充方钴矿结构中的Yb元素的“大量逸出”与氧化, 材料的高温ZT值保持在1.2左右。TEM观察发现YbyCo4Sb12填充方钴矿晶粒内存在大量的位错, 由位错产生的内应力有可能对Yb离子从晶格孔洞的逸出以及Yb离子和O离子的扩散产生阻碍作用, 从而抑制了在高温低氧分压下YbyCo4Sb12的内氧化, 使得高Yb含量的YbyCo4Sb12/Yb2O3复合材料的高温稳定性比低Yb含量填充方钴矿材料更佳。

Abstract: YbyCo4Sb12/Yb2O3 filled skutterudite composite with nominal compositions of y=0.6 was synthesized, in which the Yb2O3 particles in nanometer and/or micrometer sizes dispersed mainly on the grain boundary. The high temperature stability of the composite was investigated. It was found that the thermoelectric properties (electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity) and the microstructure features (grain size, amount and dispersion of oxide particles) , Yb filling fractions were almost unchanged after heat treatment at 873 K for 30 d, resulting in almost unchanged maximum ZT values of about 1.2. A large number of dislocations were observed in the grain interior. The stress generated by dislocations is considered the major factor to effectively prevent the “escape” of Yb ions from the Sb-cages and to block the migration of the Yb2+ ions and O2- ions, thus preventing the generation of oxide particles.
