Electronic Transport Properties of Tin-Filled Cobalt Antimonides
Year: 2007
Type: article
Abstract: The encapsulated induction melting was attempted to prepare the Sn-filled CoSb3 skutterudites and their electronic transport properties were investigated. Single phase δ-CoSb3 was successfully obtained by the subsequent isothermal heat treatment at 823K for 6 days in vacuum. The Sn-filled CoSb3 showed p-type conductivity at 300K to 700K at it is a highly degenerate semiconductor. Lattice contribution was dominant to thermal conductivity and it was considerably reduced by Sn filling in the CoSb3 skutterudite.
