Skutterudite semiconductors possess attractive transport properties and have a good potential for achieving high thermoelectric figures of merit, ZT. Low electrical resistivities and moderate to large Seebeck coefficients are obtained in binary skutterudite compounds such as CoSb/sub 3/. However, their thermal conductivities are too high (100 to 150 /spl times/10/sup -3/ Wcm/sup -1/K/sup -1/ at 300 K) to achieve high ZT values. It is well known that the formation of solid solutions, or alloying, can substantially reduce the lattice thermal conductivity of semiconductors. Because a large number of skutterudite compounds, solid solutions and related phases exist, these materials offer many possibilities for optimizing the thermal and electrical properties to a specific range of temperature. An overview of the formation of skutterudite solid solutions is given. It is shown that a substantial decrease of thermal conductivity can be achieved in cases where the fluctuations of atomic masses and volumes can be maximized and the possibility of achieving high ZT values is discussed.
方钨矿半导体具有吸引人的输运性质,具有实现高热电性能ZT的良好潜力。CoSb/sub - 3/等二元方钨矿化合物的电阻率较低,塞贝克系数中等至较大。然而,它们的热导率太高(100至150 /spl倍/10/sup -3/ Wcm/sup -1/K/sup -1/ 300 K),无法实现高ZT值。众所周知,固溶体或合金化的形成可以大大降低半导体的晶格热导率。由于存在大量的方角石化合物、固溶体和相关相,这些材料为在特定温度范围内优化热学和电学性能提供了许多可能性。概述了方角铁矿固溶体的形成。结果表明,在原子质量和体积波动最大的情况下,可以实现导热系数的大幅度降低,并讨论了实现高ZT值的可能性。

The study and design results of multi-element thermoelectric batteries with small section of legs for low-powered thermoelectric generators, weak current cooling modules and high-sensitivity sensors have been presented. The production technology of thermoelectric modules with leg cross-section more than 0.5 x 0.5 mm and length of 1-5 mm and more has been well developed. With such modules the problems of thermoelectric generators of more than 1-10 W and thermoelectric coolers with supply current of more than 1 A production have been solved. The analysis shows that possibilities for thermoelectricity practical application is substantially extended if development engineers of thermoelectric equipment have the possibility to use thermoelectric converters with small leg cross-section. In this case low-powered thermoelectric generators competitive in a number of cases to chemical electrical sources can be developed, the need in such sources is rather great.

The thermocouple consists of an internal wire (Pt, Au, Ag) inside a glass tube that is pulled down to a diameter of 1-2 /spl mu/m or less. Probes are available with second electrode (leg) from film semiconductor evaporated on the outside of the glass tube. Semiconductor PbTe doping special impurity, provides constant high multitude of the thermoelectric power in the wide temperature interval (-100-200/spl deg/C). Sensitivity of the thermocouple is from 2000 to 300 /spl mu/V/K and does not change for a long time. Special protection on the base of the ultrathin polymer layer permits use of the thermocouple in an aggressive atmosphere. Calculations indicate the response time of the thermocouple is 1 /spl mu/sec. The suitability of this thermocouple for light intensity measurements with micrometer spatial resolution is demonstrated by measuring the focused beam of the laser. In addition, such thermocouples are intrinsically suitable for applications in scanned probe microscopies. All these unique advantages make the pipette thermocouples a new and extremely promising sensor in a variety of applications including microelectronics, microbiology and others.

Since 1961, the United States has flown 41 radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) and one reactor to provide power for 25 space power systems. Thirty-eight of these nuclear power sources on 22 space systems are still in space or on other planetary bodies. This paper summarizes the design and power performance of each of the basic RTG types that have been flown which have been based on telluride and silicon-germanium thermoelectric elements. To date, US radioisotope thermoelectric generators have successfully operated for over 24 years in space. These RTGs have met or exceeded their prelaunch requirements and in so doing they have greatly expanded humanity's knowledge of the universe.

A conventional type thermoelectric module based on Si/sub 2/Ge has been made for power use. The module consists of 10 pairs of p- and n-type Si/sub 2/Ge elements in which B and P were doped (/spl sim/10/sup 20/ cm/sup -3/) respectively. The elements electrically connected in series using Mo electrodes are sandwiched between AIN plates. Each plate is 20 mm/spl times/44 mm in area, and the height of the module is about 12 mm. The power generation of the module was evaluated as a function of temperature difference between the upper (T/sub u/) and the lower (T/sub 1/) plates; a series circuit including the module and a reference resistance (/spl sim/0.5 ohm, comparable to the electrical resistance of the module) was used. With rising T/sub u/, the closed circuit current (I/sub c/), the voltage drop of the reference resistance (V/sub c/), and the open circuit voltage of the module (V/sub 0/) were measured. Maximum power calculated from I/sub c/, V/sub c/ and V/sub 0/ was about 1.3 W at T/sub u/-T/sub 1//spl sim/400 K (T/sub u//spl sim/700 K). The electrical properties of Si/sub 2/Ge elements were also presented as well as the detailed experimental procedure.

Improvements to state-of-the-art Si/sub 80/Ge/sub 20/ thermoelectric alloys have been observed in laboratory-scale samples by the application of the powder metallurgical techniques of mechanical alloying and hot pressing. Incorporating these improvements in large scale compacts for the production of thermoelectric generator elements is the next step in achieving higher efficiency RTG's. This paper discusses consolidation of large quantities of mechanically alloyed powders into production size compacts. Differences in thermoelectric properties are noted between the compacts prepared by the standard technique of hot uniaxial pressing and hot isostatic pressing. Most significant is the difference in carrier concentration between the alloys prepared by the two consolidation techniques.

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is a wide band-gap semiconductor which has many applications in various fields, from detectors of nuclear radiation to infra-red diodes and solar cells. The aim of this paper is to describe the new observed experimental effect-the influence of temperature gradient /spl Delta/T on the electrical properties of the systems: Au/p-CdTe/Au (Au/CT/Au), Au/p-Cd/sub 0.96/Zn/sub 0.04/Te/Au (Au/CZT/Au). Its explanation based on theory, the role of non-equilibrium carriers appearing due to /spl Delta/T, is given. The interpretation of the results is based on extended thermo emission-diffusion theories of charge carrier transport through a Schottky diode structure. The influence of Richardson constant was also considered for carriers passing from the metal into the semiconductor.

To date the development of thermoelectric materials and technology has reached a level, that allows the fabrication of reliable generators. It now turns out that the main impediment on the way to large scale, commercial (terrestrial) applications is primarily not the comparable low efficiency of the devices, but the high investment costs, which are still on the order of several ten Dollars per Watt. Necessary conditions for cost reduction are the availability of (i) cheap, non-toxic materials in large quantities and (ii) processing methods which allow efficient production; preferably the formation of complete device structures within a single, automized manufacturing step. This paper introduces plasma spraying as a forming process with the potential to fulfil the above stated condition. The paper reports on first studies on the consolidation and characterization of iron disilicide (FeSi/sub 2/). It was found that plasma spray forming is applicable to produce dense materials with properties comparable to hot-pressed ones.
到目前为止,热电材料和技术的发展已经达到了可以制造可靠发电机的水平。现在的事实证明,阻碍大规模商业(地面)应用的主要障碍主要不是设备的低效率,而是高昂的投资成本,每瓦的投资成本仍然在几十美元左右。降低成本的必要条件是:(1)有大量廉价、无毒的材料和(2)能有效生产的加工方法;最好是在单个自动化制造步骤内形成完整的装置结构。本文介绍了一种有潜力满足上述条件的等离子喷涂成形工艺。本文报道了对二硅化铁(FeSi/ sub2 /)的固结和表征的初步研究。结果表明,等离子体喷射成形可生产出与热压成形性能相当的致密材料。
