Thermoelectric properties of PbTe prepared at high pressure and high temperature

Year: 2002
Type: article
Abstract: Lead telluride (PbTe) with rock-salt structure was successfully obtained by a high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) method. The orientation of the PbTe samples varies with pressure increase. The results—a decrease in the Seebeck coefficient, resistivity and thermal conductivity of PbTe with pressure but an increase in the thermoelectric power figure σ S 2 —indicate that the figure of merit Z of PbTe samples can be improved several times over by using HPHT.
