The electronic structure and thermoelectric properties of Bi3+-doped (Sr0.889-xLa0.111Bix)TiO2.963 were investigated using the first principles method. Doping Bi3+ can increase the cell parameters, cell asymmetry, and band gap. Increase in Bi3+ content leads to enhanced asymmetry of DOS relative to the Fermi level, which results in an increased Seebeck coefficient, carrier mobility, and decreased carrier concentration. An appropriate Bi3+ doping concentration (7.4-14.8%) can enhance lattice distortion and reduce lattice thermal conductivity of the material. An optimum Bi3+ doping concentration (7.4%) can effectively optimize the electrical transport performance and improve the thermoelectric properties of strontium titanate. The optimal Bi3+ doping concentration is 7.4%, and Sr0.815La0.111Bi0.074TiO2.963 achieves a maximum ZT of 0.48. This work elucidates the mechanism of Bi3+ doping in enhancing the thermoelectric properties of strontium titanate.
