High power factor and mechanical properties of Bi1-xSbx alloys enabled by redensification of crystal slabs
The low-cost Bi1-xSbx crystal has been considered the best low-temperature material for its high electrical properties, which also can generate high effective thermal conductivity, revealing a high potential in heat dissipation. However, the weak mechanical strength hinders practical applications. Herein, we firstly grew the Bi1-xSbx crystal by the Bridgeman method, then cleaved the crystal into slabs with different sizes for hot-pressing. The obtained materials exhibited a high bending strength of 72 MPa, which is twofold that of Bi1-xSbx [001]-direction. Furthermore, the hot-pressed Bi1-xSbx samples show high electrical conductivities, being similar to those of the single crystals, resulting in the high record power factor of 78 μW·cm-1·K-2 @110 K and 38 μW·cm-1·K-2 @300 K among the hot-pressed poly-crystalline Bi1-xSbx. This high electrical performance is beneficial to the applications of heat dissipation. Therefore, this work proves an effective way to simultaneously improve the mechanical and thermoelectric properties of Bi1-xSbx alloys.
期刊介绍:
Materialia is a multidisciplinary journal of materials science and engineering that publishes original peer-reviewed research articles. Articles in Materialia advance the understanding of the relationship between processing, structure, property, and function of materials.
Materialia publishes full-length research articles, review articles, and letters (short communications). In addition to receiving direct submissions, Materialia also accepts transfers from Acta Materialia, Inc. partner journals. Materialia offers authors the choice to publish on an open access model (with author fee), or on a subscription model (with no author fee).
