Oxygen stoichiometry in epitaxial GdBaCo2O5.5±δ films accommodates the strain, which substantially affects thermoelectric properties, bringing the material from p-type (tensile strain c⊥-oriented on STO) to n-type thermopower (compressive b⊥ on LAO).

ABSTRACTThermoelectric power generation has been attracting attention as a technology for waste heat utilization in which thermal energy is directly converted into electric energy. It is well known that layered cobalt oxide compounds such as NaCo2O4 and Ca3Co4O9 have high thermoelectric properties in p-type oxide semiconductors. However, in most cases, the thermoelectric properties in n-type oxide materials are not as high. Therefore, n-type magnesium silicide (Mg2Si) has been studied as an alternative due to its non-toxicity, environmental friendliness, lightweight property, and comparative abundance compared with other TE systems. In this study, we fabricated π-structure thermoelectric power generation devices using p-type NaCo2O4 elements and n-type Mg2Si elements. The p- and n-type sintering bodies were fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS). To reduce the resistance at the interface between elements and electrodes, we processed the surface of the elements before fabricating the devices. The end face of a Mg2Si element was covered with Ni by SPS and that of a NaCo2O4 element was coated with Ag by silver paste and soldering.The thermoelectric device consisted of 18 pairs of p-type and n-type legs connected with Ag electrodes. The cross-sectional and thickness dimensions of the p-type elements were 3.0 mm × 5.0 mm × 7.6 mm (t) and those of the n-type elements were 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 7.6 mm (t). The open circuit voltage was 1.9 V and the maximum output power was 1.4 W at a heat source temperature of 873 K and a cooling water temperature of 283 K in air.

ABSTRACTWe have prepared (Ca1−x−yMxBiy)3Co4Oz (M = Mg, Sr, and Ba) thin films by a combinatorial approach using a solution process. In the systems of (Ca1−x−yMxBiy)3Co4Oz (M = Mg, Sr, and Ba), solid solution range was determined to be × < 0.8 (M = Sr, y = 0), x < 1.0 (M = Mg, y = 0), x = 0.0 (M = Ba, y = 0), and x < 0.4 (M = Bi, x = 0). No solid solution range was obtained for the substitution of Ba for Ca site. The in-plane compressive stress in the CoO2 sublattice is controllable by the cation substitution for Ca in the (Ca2CoO3) sublattice. With increasing in-plane stress, the magnitude of thermoelectric power and resistivity increased.

AbstractAnisotropies of the properties of the bismuth-layered perovskite SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) have been investigated using epitaxial thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition both on conducting Nb-doped SrTiO3 (STO) single crystal substrates and on Si(100) substrates. It has been found that the three-dimensional epitaxy relationship SBT(001)∥STO(001); SBT [110] ∥STO[100] can be applied to all SBT thin films on STO substrates of (001), (011), and (111) orientations. An about 1.7 times larger remanent polarization was obtained in (103)-oriented SBT films than in that of (116) orientation, while the (001)-oriented SBT films revealed no ferroelectricity along their c-axis. Non-c-axis-oriented SBT films with a well-defined (116) orientation were also grown on silicon substrates for the first time. They were deposited on Si(100) covered with a conducting SrRuO3 (110) bottom electrode on a YSZ(100) buffer layer.
