Thermoelectric properties of Ca3-xEuxCo3.95Ga0.05O9+delta (0 < x < 0.10)

The partial replacement of Ca2+ ions with Eu3+ in the Ca3Co3.95Ga0.05O9+delta system to give polycrystalline samples of Ca3-xEuxCo3.95Ga0.05O9+delta (x = 0.00, 0.02, and 0.10) was performed in order to assess the effect that the dopant had on thermoelectric properties of this system. It was found that the electrical resistivity and thermopower increased with increasing Eu3+ content, and the thermal conductivity decreased. The highest thermoelectric figure of ...

Thermoelectric properties of Ca3−xEuxCo4O9+delta

The partial replacement of Ca2+ ions with Eu3+ in the Ca3Co3.95Ga0.05O9+delta system to give polycrystalline samples of Ca3-xEuxCo4O9+delta (x = 0.00, 0.05, and 0.10) was performed in order to assess the effect that the dopant had on thermoelectric properties of this system. It was found that the electrical resistivity and thermopower increased when Eu3+ is added, and the thermal conductivity decreased. The highest thermoelectric figure of merit ...

The effects of Si doping on the thermoelectric and magnetic properties of Ca0.98Bi0.02Mn1−xSixO3−delta with x = 0.00, 0.02 and 0.03

Single phase, orthohombic structured Ca0.98Bi0.02Mn1−xSixO3−delta (x = 0.00, 0.02 and 0.03) samples were prepared using solid state reaction. The authors investigated whether they could improve the thermoelectric properties of the product by substituting calcium and manganese with bismuth and silicon, respectively. The resulting products had an increase in electrical resistivity and thermopower and a decrease in thermal conductivity as the amount of silicon added increased. Magnetic moments decreased in the ...

Thermoelectric and magnetic properties of Ca3Co4–xCuxO9 + delta with x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.07, 0.10 and 0.15

The thermoelectric and magnetic properties of the Ca3Co4-xCuxO9+delta system where x = 0, 0.05, 0.07, 0.10, and 0.15 were investigated as materials of this type have potential for use in thermoelectric generators. The goal of this work was to identify the sample in this system having the highest thermoelectric figure of merit. To accomplish this, a high thermopower, a high thermal voltage, a low resistivity, and a low thermal conductivity were required. It ...

Electronic transport of co-doped misfit-layered cobaltites

Two series of co-doped mifit-layered cobaltites were prepared with compositions of Ca3-xYbxCo4-yAgyO9+delta and Ca3-xEuxCo4-yAgyO9+delta. All of the samples exhibited an increasing thermopower as temperature was increased up to a temperature of 700 K. The sample with the highest power factor and figure of merit was Ca2.95Eu0.05Co3.95Ag0.05O9+delta....
