Abstract
0.3 wt% Bi-doped (Pb_(1-x)Ge_x)Te (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15) alloy powders were fabricated by melting/grinding and mechanical alloying processes, and then hot pressed at 650℃. The (Pb_(1-x)Ge_x)Te alloys exhibited more negative Seebeck coefficient, higher electrical resistivity and lower thermal conductivity with increasing the GeTe content. The (Pb_(1-x)Ge_x)Te alloys fabricated by mechanical alloying exhibited much higher electrical resistivities, compared to the specimens processed by melting/grinding. Maximum figure-of-merits of 1.07×10^(-3)/K at 400℃ and 1.25×10^(-3)/K at 300℃ were obtained for PbTe and (Pb_(0.9)Ge_(0.1))Te processed by melting/grinding. A maximum figure-of-merit of 1.33×10^(-3)/K was obtained at 200℃ for PbTe fabricated by mechanical alloying. The figure-of-merit of (Pb_(1-x)Ge_x)Te fabricated by mechanical alloying decreased substantially with increasing the GeTe content due to the remarkable increase of the electrical resistivity.
