We report measurements of electrical resistivity, thermopower, thermal conductivity, and Hall coefficient of polycrystalline Eu-doped CoSb3-based skutterudites with compositions Eu0.20Co4Sb12, Eu0.43Co4Sb11.59Ge0.31, and Eu0.42Co4Sb11.37Ge0.50. The relatively high mobility of these compounds, as compared to that of La- and Ce-filled skutterudites, may play a role in the large thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT>1 at 700 K) of Eu0.42Co4Sb11.37Ge0.50. We discuss the significant potential of these compounds for thermoelectric applications. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
