説明:

This article investigates the transport properties of a family of rare-earth antimonides of typical formula Yb4Sb3. A co-substitution of La on the Yb site and Bi on the Sb site was attempted to further improve the thermoelectric properties. The solubility limit of the LaxYb4-xSb2.8Bi0.2 solid solution was established to be x = 0.3. Subsequent synthesis of x = 0.1; 0.2 and 0.3 compositions at a larger scale enabled their transport properties evaluation and comparison with Yb4Sb3. The Seebeck coefficient of the substituted compounds was found to be similar to the pristine material from 373 K to 1273 K while an increase in resistivity was observed. Detailed DFT calculations confirmed that the Seebeck coefficient may not be significantly improved by La substitutions and explained the p-type conducting behavior at high temperatures of the title compounds. The thermal conductivity of La0.2Yb3.8Sb2.8Bi0.2 (x = 0.2) was found to be reduced by about 30 % compared to the Yb4Sb3 binary. The figure of merit zT of the parent Yb4Sb3 material was determined to be 0.5 at 1273 K. While dual substitutions have not permitted a significant improvement on the figure of merit mostly due to a resistivity increase, the study provides a stepping stone for further optimization.
