Abstract:
The Pb4Sb12-xBi8+xSe34 (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) crystals belong to pavonite homologues composed of thick NaCl- and thin GeS-type slabs which crystallize in the C2/m space group. Pb4Sb12-xBi8+xSe34 compounds exhibit n-type semiconductor transport behavior and demonstrate excellent thermodynamic stability. These intrinsic compounds have high carrier concentrations of similar to 2.18 x 10(19) to 4.47 x 10(20) cm(-3), leading to high electrical conductivities. The two-band electronic structure results in a high Seebeck coefficient. Taking Pb4Sb9Bi11Se34 as an example, it has a remarkable Seebeck coefficient of -149.1 mu V K-1 and high electrical conductivity of similar to 118 S cm(-1). It is comparable with other pavonite at 723 K. On the other hand, due to mixed occupancies of cation sites and complex crystal structure, the Pb4Sb9Bi11Se34 features ultralow lattice thermal conductivity of similar to 0.25 W m(-1) K-1 at 723 K. The high figure of merit, ZT, of 0.48 for Pb4Sb9Bi11Se34 is obtained at 723 K.
