| Abstract |
The functional gradient material of p-type (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃/(Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te with the segment ratio of 1.3 : 1 was fabricated by hot pressing of the mechanically alloyed (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃ and 0.5 at% Na₂Te-doped (Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te powders. The power generation characteristics of the hot-pressed (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃/(Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te were measured and compared with those of the (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃and 0.5 at% Na₂Te-doped (Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te alloys. With the temperature difference (ΔT) higher than 300℃ at both ends of the specimen, the hot-pressed (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃/(Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te exhibited larger output power than those of the (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃ and 0.5 at% Na₂Te-doped (Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te alloys. The maximum output power of the (Bi_(0.2)Sb_(0.8))₂Te₃/(Pb_(0.7)Sn_(0.3))Te predicted with the measured Seebeck coefficient and the estimated electrical resistivity was in good agreement with the measured values. |
