Outstanding Room‐Temperature Thermoelectric Performance of n‐type Mg<sub>3</sub>Bi<sub>2</sub>‐Based Compounds Through Synergistically Combined Band Engineering Approaches
Abstract
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Thermoelectric cooling materials based on Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Te<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> have a long history of unsurpassed performance near room temperature. Recently, research into price‐competitive Mg<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>(Bi, Sb)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>‐based materials are focused on replacing traditional cooling materials. Here, the thermoelectric properties of Mg<jats:sub>3.2</jats:sub>Bi<jats:sub>1.998−x</jats:sub>Sb<jats:sub>x</jats:sub>Te<jats:sub>0.002</jats:sub>Cu<jats:sub>0.005</jats:sub> (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5) polycrystalline compounds are investigated. In all temperature regions, electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficient are increased with Sb concentration. The electronic transport properties of Sb‐alloyed compounds are maximized by synergistically combined band engineering approaches such as band structure change caused by lattice strain, increased electronic density of states, and chemical potential shift, leading to exceptionally high‐power factor values of over 3.0 mW m<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup> K<jats:sup>−2</jats:sup> at room temperature. Furthermore, with increasing Sb content, thermal conductivity values are systematically reduced due to the promotion of alloy scattering of phonons and suppression of the bipolar contribution. Consequently, these multiple approaches significantly enhance thermoelectric performance, resulting in an enhancement of thermoelectric figure‐of‐merit <jats:italic>zT</jats:italic> above 1.1 at 348–423 K. Additionally, a <jats:italic>zT<jats:sub>avg</jats:sub></jats:italic> of 1.1 is recorded at 300–450 K, making it an unrivaled value among the reported n‐type Mg<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>‐based thermoelectric materials. Overall, this work demonstrates that Mg<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>‐based materials are more promising for thermoelectric cooling applications compared to Bi<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Te<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>‐based materials.</jats:p>
