摘要:

作为一种能够同时制备具有相同化学成分的n型与p型热电材料, BiSbSe1.50Te1.50材料在开发设计性能优良的热电器件方面具有极大的应用潜力。但其电导率较低, 热电性能较差, 阻碍了进一步推广应用。因此, 在保持较低热导率的前提下, 提升BiSbSe1.50Te1.50的电输运性能, 对改善其热电性能具有重要意义。本研究结合封管熔炼和真空热压烧结, 对n型BiSbSe1.50Te1.50进行多次重复热变形。研究发现, 热变形使样品产生大量具有择优排列方向和较大表面积的纳米层片, 使其不但可以保持较高载流子浓度, 而且具有高的载流子迁移率, 从而有效提高了BiSbSe1.50Te1.50的电导率。与此同时, 热变形还可以在样品中引入多尺度缺陷, 有效散射全尺度声子, 极大地降低了BiSbSe1.50Te1.50的热导率。因此, 热变形实现了样品电输运和热输运之间的解耦, 同时改善了电性能和热性能。在500 K时, BiSbSe1.50Te1.50的热电优值由未变形样品的0.21提高至0.50, 提升了约138%, 热电性能得到显著改善。本工作为制备具有较高转换效率和均匀结构的BiSbSe1.50Te1.50热电器件提供了基础。

Abstract:

As a typical multi-layered compound thermoelectric (TE) material, BiSbSe1.50Te1.50, can be utilized to fabricate p-n junctions with the same chemical composition. It has great potential in the development and design of high-performance TE devices due to its ability to avoid lattice mismatch incompatibility and harmful band misalignment. However, the TE performance of n-type BiSbSe1.50Te1.50 is limited due to poor electrical transport properties, which hinders its further application in TE devices. Therefore, it is of great significance to improve the TE performance by enhancing the electrical transport properties while maintaining low thermal conductivity. In this work, a series of n-type BiSbSe1.50Te1.50 hot deformation samples were prepared by solid-state reaction combined with hot pressed sintering. It is found that the preferred orientation and nanoscale lamellar structures with large surface areas form in hot-deformed samples. The donor-like effect elevates the carrier concentration, while these lamellar structures facilitate higher carrier mobility by providing expressways for carriers, giving rise to the enhanced electrical conductivity. Additionally, various and abundant multiscale defects are introduced into samples, evoking strong phonon scattering with different frequencies and thus lowering the thermal conductivity. The electrical and thermal transport properties have been synergistically optimized by hot deformation, realizing the improvement of TE properties for n-type BiSbSe1.50Te1.50. As a result, a peak thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) of 0.50 at 500 K is achieved for the hot-deformed sample, which increased ~138% compared to the undeformed sample (0.21). This work establishes a foundation for further advancement of the preparation for BiSbSe1.50Te1.50 TE devices with high conversion efficiency and homogeneous structure.
