説明:

Thermoelectric (TE) materials, which directly convert heat into electricity, hold promise for sustainable energy applications, making the development of efficient, cost-effective, and non-toxic materials crucial for their widespread adoption. Here, we attempt to improve the thermoelectric properties of Fe2VAl-based full-Heusler compounds through the targeted substitution of VAl with Ti2 in Fe2(VAl)1–xTi2x . Our study reveals a miscibility gap between 0.4 < x < 0.9, yet significant enhancement of the thermoelectric performance for both p- and n-type compounds was achieved for smaller substitutions. While Fe2VAl and Fe2Ti2 are semimetals, a band gap opening occurs in the solid solution series, yielding a substantial enhancement of the Seebeck coefficient up to 130 μV/K in p-type materials. By additional optimization via isovalent V/Ta heavy-element substitution, we further optimize the TE performance, achieving one of the best zT values in p- and n-type
full-Heusler compounds, revealing the (VAl)/Ti2 substitution as a promising pathway for improving the TE efficiency of full-Heusler compounds.
