Description

High-content heavy element doped beta-FeSi2Base thermoelectric material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to high-content heavy element doped beta-FeSi2A base thermoelectric material and a preparation method thereof belong to the field of thermoelectric materials.
Background
At present, the human society is developing rapidly, along with the increasing flourishing of economy and culture, the demand and consumption of people for resources such as natural gas, petroleum and the like are increasing, and the problems of energy and environment are highlighted day by day. During the use of a wide variety of energy sources, a significant proportion of the energy is not efficiently utilized and is released to the atmosphere as waste heat. The energy is collected and fully used, the energy utilization efficiency is improved, and an important way for solving the energy crisis is provided. In such a large background, the thermoelectric material has received much attention because it can directly realize interconversion between thermal energy and electric energy. The system has the characteristics of no pollution, no mechanical transmission, no noise, high stability and the like, and has unique advantages in the fields of industrial waste heat recovery, deep space exploration power supply, special electronic refrigeration and the like.
Thermoelectric materials achieve the interconversion of thermal and electrical energy based on two effects: the Seebeck effect and the Peltier effect. The Seebeck effect means that if a temperature difference exists between two ends of a conductor, a potential difference is generated inside the conductor, and the potential difference forms the theoretical basis of thermoelectric power generation. The Peltier effect is a phenomenon that when current is applied to a loop composed of different conductors, heat absorption occurs at one end and heat release occurs at the other end of the loop, which also forms the theoretical basis of thermoelectric refrigeration. The energy conversion efficiency of a thermoelectric material depends on the high and low end temperatures at which the material operates and the properties of the material itself. High and low end temperatures are generally determined for a particular use environment, and therefore, increasing the energy conversion efficiency of thermoelectric materials is often achieved by increasing material performance. The performance of thermoelectric materials is often described by a dimensionless figure of merit, zT, where zT ═ S2σT/(κeL) In the formula, S, sigma, T, kappaeLThe Seebeck coefficient, the electrical conductivity, the absolute temperature, the electron thermal conductivity and the lattice thermal conductivity are respectively expressed. Typical thermoelectric materials such as Bi2Te3、PbTe、CoSb3、La3T4And Half-hesler alloy and the like, have a series of problems such as toxic composition elements, poor material thermal stability and easy oxidation while having high performance, and are difficult to effectively realize from materials to devicesAnd (6) transition. On the premise of high-temperature application, the material is required to be green, nontoxic and good in stability.
β-FeSi2The base thermoelectric material has great potential in the field of thermoelectric power generation. Firstly, the components are green and nontoxic, and are very environment-friendly. Second, beta-FeSi2The high-temperature-resistant thermoelectric material has excellent thermal stability and oxidation resistance, and can realize thermoelectric conversion in a wide temperature range of 300-1200K. More importantly, N and P type materials are easily obtained through doping of neighbor elements, and the homologous N and P thermoelectric legs bring great convenience to the manufacture of thermoelectric devices and lay a solid foundation for industrial application of materials.
β-FeSi2The compound has the characteristics of environmental friendliness, outstanding thermal stability and oxidation resistance and the like, and has a wide application basis. However, the electrical conductivity of the material is very low, and at the same time, the material has high lattice thermal conductivity, so that the thermoelectric figure of merit zT of the material is very low, and is generally only 10-5~10-3. Although external element doping is a common means of improving the thermoelectric properties of materials. Some documents also disclose that the electrical and thermal properties of the material can be improved by doping, but are limited by the low doping type and amount of the element, and the obtained beta-FeSi2The range over which the thermoelectric figure of merit zT of the base compound can be optimized is very limited.
