Abstract: The hot pressing was employed to prepare Fe-doped CoSb 3 skutterudites and their thermoelectric properties were investigated.Single phase δ-CoSb 3 was successfully obtained by the hot pressing under 60 MPa at 773 K for 2 hrs.Iron atoms acted as electron acceptors by substituting cobalt atoms.Thermoelectric properties were remarkably improved by the appropriate doping.Co 0.7 Fe 0.3 Sb 3 was found as an optimum composition for the best thermoelectric property in this work.
