Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of material preparation, relates to a low-thermal conductivity double half-Heusler alloy thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof, and particularly relates to low-thermal conductivity Sc 0.5-x M x Nb 0.5-y N y NiSn-based double half-Heusler thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
In recent years, with the emergence of energy crisis and the deterioration of living environment, the development of clean new energy is urgent, and the search for high-efficiency and pollution-free energy conversion is also a hot problem to be solved in the world. The thermoelectric conversion technology taking thermoelectric materials as the core can realize the direct interconversion of heat energy and electric energy so as to carry out thermoelectric generation and thermoelectric refrigeration, and the thermoelectric device has the advantages of no noise, zero emission, no pollution, long service life, no vibration, small size and the like, is widely applied to the fields of aerospace, military, industry, medical treatment and civil use at present, and plays an irreplaceable role in relieving energy crisis and environmental pollution.
Thermoelectric generation technology is an effective way to convert low-quality heat sources into electric energy, and is mainly applied to the fields of aerospace, military, industry and civilian use. In the aerospace field, the electric energy generated by the isotope thermoelectric generator can not only ensure normal and efficient operation, but also greatly reduce the maintenance cost and realize long-life service. As early as 1961, the navigation satellite of the navy of the united states adopted PbTe as a thermoelectric material, and the output power of the thermoelectric conversion power supplies installed in the following travelers nos. I and II reached 158W. In the field of industrial application, from the 21 st century, reports of thermoelectric power generation by using medium-low temperature industrial waste heat are endless. The thermoelectric power generation can effectively utilize 10-20% of heat in the waste heatThereby improving the utilization rate of energy and realizing energy conservation and emission reduction. In addition, the waste heat of the automobile exhaust can also be used for thermoelectric power generation. The united states department of energy and more than 20 european research institutes have successively released related studies on thermoelectric power generation using automobile exhaust as a heat source. In the civil field, the technologies of low-power supply, medicine constant temperature and the like have gradually entered the lives of people, for example, 1cm 3 The semiconductor thermoelectric power generation device of size just can be enough to maintain the normal work of cardiac pacemaker, and the usable human body temperature of the novel wrist-watch of commercialization supplies power for the wrist-watch etc..
The thermoelectric refrigeration technology is more popular in civil use as an environment-friendly pollution-free quick refrigeration mode, and is widely applied to the fields of military, medical biology, electronic technology and the like. In the military field, thermoelectric refrigeration can be used for local refrigeration of infrared laser detectors of missiles, satellites, aircrafts and the like, so that the response time is greatly shortened, and the sensitivity is improved; in the medical field, the thermoelectric refrigerator can be used for low-temperature storage of medicines such as vaccines, serum and the like, and can also create a low-temperature environment for a medical imaging device, so that the signal-to-noise ratio and the image pickup quality of the image pickup device are improved; in the field of electronic materials, thermoelectric refrigeration technology has been applied to the refrigeration of electronic devices such as computer CPUs, mobile phones and the like, and particularly, the appearance of planar thin film thermoelectric refrigerators has been widely applied to microelectronic integrated circuits due to the miniaturization characteristic and good compatibility with IC circuits. In addition, the refrigerator can avoid the environmental pollution caused by using refrigerants such as Freon and the like, has the advantage of low noise, and is widely applied to civil fields such as environment-friendly refrigerators, thermoelectric air conditioners and the like. In recent years, the emergence of a combined system of thermoelectric refrigeration and other refrigeration methods has made up for the deficiencies of other refrigeration methods while taking advantage of thermoelectric refrigeration.
Therefore, the thermoelectric material has good application prospects in the aspects of environmental protection and energy utilization, can optimize the performance of the conventional thermoelectric material, and has great research significance in developing novel thermoelectric materials.
Thermoelectric conversion technology is an important component of the development of new energy industries, and the efficiency of thermoelectric conversion modules depends largely on the performance of thermoelectric materials. The thermoelectric material is a functional material which realizes direct reversible conversion of heat energy and electric energy by utilizing the transport property and mutual coordination of current carriers and phonons in solids, and the performance optimization of the conventional thermoelectric material and the development of a new high-performance material are always hot problems which are closely concerned by researchers and are also the key points for realizing industrial orientation.
The conversion efficiency of the thermoelectric material is closely related to the temperature difference of the cold end and the hot end and the ZT value. ZT value is dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit, which is an important index for measuring thermoelectric performance of material, ZT = [ S = [ [ S ] 2 σ/(κ eL )]And T. The thermoelectric material with a high ZT value needs to have a larger Seebeck coefficient S, so that the obvious thermoelectric effect is ensured; a higher conductivity σ, minimizing the generation of joule heat; at the same time, the thermal conductivity k should be small to ensure that heat can be kept near the linker (k can be regarded as k) e And kappa L The sum). However, the three physical parameters are restricted by mutual correlation, and it is difficult to achieve significant improvement of ZT values by regulating a certain parameter, so how to improve ZT values of materials becomes core work in the field of thermoelectric material research.
The Half-Heusler alloy is a thermoelectric material suitable for medium and high temperature, and has the advantages of rich component element reserves, low cost, no pollution, good thermal stability and good mechanical property. However, due to the simple structure, the higher intrinsic lattice thermal conductivity becomes a main factor limiting the performance improvement. Phonon scattering can be enhanced by measures such as nanocrystallization, phase separation, alloying and the like at present, and the effect of reducing lattice thermal conductivity is achieved. The recently derived double half-Heusler alloy is a quaternary compound based on aliovalent substitution, and has an atomic disordered structure due to the fact that the unit cell number is larger than 3, and the double half-Heusler alloy has small phonon group velocity and strong phonon scattering, so that the double half-Heusler alloy becomes a material with intrinsic low lattice thermal conductivity. With Ti 2 FeNiSb 2 For example, it has been shown that the lattice thermal conductivity at room temperature is only 1/3 of that of TiCoSb.
The Half-Heusler alloy has rich component elements, and the known Half-Heusler alloy can be substituted by different valence to obtain the new double-Half-Heusler alloy.

(2) The Half-Heusler alloy is difficult to realize high-performance p-type and n-type materials of the same substrate, and different geometric characteristics and thermal expansion coefficients are unfavorable for long-term service of thermoelectric devices.
(3) At present, only a few kinds of double-half-Heusler thermoelectric materials are researched and reported, and a plurality of double-half-Heusler thermoelectric materials with excellent performance are still required to be discovered.
(4) The double half-Heusler material has poor electrical property, and higher thermoelectric property can be obtained by adjusting the concentration of a current carrier.
