Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

We have optimized the compositions of p-type thermoelectric materials based on solid solutions between bismuth and antimony tellurides with high thermoelectric figures of merit in different temperature ranges between 100 and 300 K. The materials have been prepared by extrusion and have been characterized by microstructural analysis. Their thermoelectric properties have been studied in the range 100–400 K.
