Effect of Sn oxides on the thermal conductivity of polycrystalline SnSe

Eleonora Isotta et al.

Summary: Polycrystalline samples of SnSe have higher thermal conductivity than single crystals, which can be attributed to the presence of thermally conductive Sn oxides at the grain boundaries. However, the type and quantity of Sn oxide present in the samples do not affect the thermal conductivity of SnSe. This calls for a better understanding of thermal transport mechanisms in SnSe and other systems with two-phase transport.

Rare earth element Ce enables high thermoelectric performance in n-type SnSe polycrystals

Shan Li et al.

Summary: In this study, the thermoelectric properties of n-type SnSe polycrystals were optimized by introducing the rare earth element Ce and PbTe. Ce was found to effectively convert SnSe from a p-type to an n-type conductor, and the band gap was reduced and the carrier concentration increased by PbTe alloying. This led to an enhanced power factor and a significant reduction in lattice thermal conductivity.

Study of thermoelectric properties of polycrystalline SnSe by Ag and Pb co-doping

Lili Su et al.

Summary: Ag and Pb co-doped polycrystalline SnSe materials were prepared and their thermoelectric properties were systematically investigated. The addition of Pb effectively improved the conductivity, with a room temperature carrier concentration of 2.9 x 10(18) cm(-3) in the Sn0.94Ag0.01Pb0.05Se sample. Ag2Se phase was formed in the material. The growth of SnSe polycrystalline grains with increased content of Ag and Pb resulted in an increase in thermal conductivity. The ZT value of the Sn0.98Ag0.01Pb0.01Se sample at 873 K was 1.4, lower than that of pure SnSe polycrystalline.

Insight into the intrinsic microstructures of polycrystalline SnSe based compounds

Wenhua Xue et al.

Summary: The microstructures of undoped SnSe and Bi-doped Sn0.97SeBi0.03 were investigated using transmission electron microscopy. A characteristic microstructure of lath-like grains was observed in SnSe based compounds. Moreover, a large quantity of low-angle grain boundaries and a high concentration of edge dislocations and stacking faults were found in the grains. These microstructures result in lattice mismatch and distortion, and can act as the phonon scattering centers, broadening the understanding of the low thermal conductivity of SnSe based compounds.
