Description

A kind of rear-earth-doped SnTe base thermoelectricity materials
Technical field
The invention belongs to field of thermoelectric material technique, more particularly to a kind of rear-earth-doped SnTe base thermoelectricity materials.
Background technology
The material of thermoelectric generator or thermoelectric cooling module is referred to as thermoelectric material, be one kind can realize electric energy interacted with heat energy turn The material of change.The thermo-electric generation and refrigeration device made by thermoelectric material have pollution-free, noiseless, easy to maintain, safety can By the advantages of.The earliest Soviet Union is that household radio electricity receiver is powered in outlying district by the use of kerosene lamp or timber as thermal source.With Space exploration interest increase and in the increasingly increased resource survey of the earth and Exploratory behavior, it is necessary to develop a class can Itself energy supply and the power-supply system that need not be looked after, thermoelectric power generation are particularly suitable to these applications.For remote space probe For, the thermoelectric generator of radio isotope heat supply is unique electric power system.It is successfully applied to NASA On more than 20 spacecrafts such as the Apollo of NASA transmittings, Pioneer, Voyager and Ulysses.In Russia, there are more than 1000 The ocean lighthouse that similar radiosotope thermoelectric generator device is used near the Arctic Circle, sets with non-maintaining 20 years of operation The meter life-span.Nearly more than ten years, China has been also carried out substantial amounts of research on using the nature temperature difference and industrial waste heat thermoelectric power generation, and Larger progress is achieved, with good comprehensive social benefit.There is thermoelectric cooler mechanical compression refrigeration machine to be difficult to match in excellence or beauty Advantage:Size is small, light weight, without any mechanical rotation part, work noiseless, without liquid or gaseous medium, therefore does not deposit In the problem of pollution environment, accurate temperature controlling, fast response time, device long service life are capable of achieving.It can also be making for superconductor With offer low temperature environment.The micro element prepared furthermore with thermoelectric material is used to prepare micro power, microcell cooling, optic communication Swash the thermoregulating system of laser diode and infrared ray sensor, the application field of thermoelectric material has been expanded significantly.In electronic product Radiating, biomedicine operation in temperature control aspect be respectively provided with good application prospect.Should say, thermoelectric material is a kind of The material of extensive application prospect, in environmental pollution and energy crisis increasingly serious today, carries out new thermoelectric materials Research has very strong realistic meaning.
Thermoelectric generation technology can realize that heat energy and electric energy are directly mutually changed, and be the emphasis problem of current new energy research One of.Greatly develop application of the thermoelectric power generation technology in solar thermal energy generating (increasing income) and waste heat waste-heat power generation (throttling) etc. field The current energy scarcity of China and problem of environmental pollution can effectively be alleviated, with important strategic importance.The performance of thermoelectric material By dimensionless figure of merit ZT=[S2σ/(κeL)] T signs, conductivityσ and Seebeck coefficient S are improved, while reducing thermal conductivity κ (κ It is carrier thermal conductivity κeWith phonon thermal conductivity κLSum) be optimization of material key, but three physical quantitys are interrelated, make The optimization for obtaining performance is limited by reality.In recent years, by not turning off using energy band engineering, nanometer engineering and new material Hair, achieves a large amount of progress in terms of peak value thermoelectric figure of merit is improved.
Unleaded SnTe has with the same face-centred cubic structure of chalcogenide lead, because SnTe has intrinsic Sn higher empty Position, causes intrinsic carrier concentration higher so that the thermal conductivity of the material is higher, and Seeebeck coefficients and ZT values are relatively low, Therefore do not paid attention to for a long time.If the performance of unleaded group IV-VI thermoelectric material SnTe can be improved further, There is the group IV-VI thermoelectric material of other commonly used lead bases to be replaced.And undoped p SnTe sills have it is higher intrinsic Sn rooms, cause intrinsic carrier concentration higher so that the thermal conductivity of the material is higher, and Seeebeck coefficients and Z values compared with It is low.Although can improve the Seebeck coefficients of material by introducing resonance level using In doping, the method is to dopant It is required that higher, performance increase rate is limited, and the introducing of resonance level can reduce carrier mobility.
