Synthesis, thermal behavior and thermoelectric properties of disordered tellurides with structures derived from the rocksalt type

Abstract

GeBi{sub 2}Te{sub 4} is proposed as phase-change material. Nanostructures in metastable GeBi{sub 2}Te{sub 4} were obtained by high-pressure synthesis and thermal quenching, - depending on temperature and pressure different modifications were found. The differences in the electrical characteristics can be attributed to the variation of grain boundary concentration and the grain size distribution. Two synthesis approaches were used to prepare Ag{sub 3.4}In{sub 3.7}Sb{sub 76.4}Te{sub 16.5} bulk samples and studied with respect to their transport and thermal properties. A high pressure route to prepare thermoelectrics with low thermal conductivity was developed for AgIn{sub x}Sb{sub 1-x}Te{sub 2}. Disorder and and transport studies on In{sub 3}SbTe{sub 2} were performed using X-ray, neutron and electron diffraction measurements. Nanostructures in Te/Sb/Ge/Ag (TAGS) thermoelectric materials were induced by phase transitions associated with vacancy ordering. Further studies concerned solid solution series (GeTe){sub x}(LiSbTe{sub 2}){sub 2} (1 smaller or equal x smaller or equal 11) and their thermoelectric properties.
