Description:
The Seebeck coefficient and electrical resistivity of boron-carbon (B-C) and boron-carbon-silicon (B-C-Si)) P-type alloys are reported for temperatures up to 500 C. Using available literature values for the thermal conductivity of B-C alloys, thermoelectric figure-of-merit values of 1.37 x 10 to the -5th and 1.20 x 10 to the -4th/deg C are calculated for 100 and 500 C, respectively. Sulfur-deficient rare earth sesquisulfide N-type alloys exhibit Seebeck coefficients which are relatively insensitive to alloy composition over the composition range investigated but are very sensitive to fabrication parameters.
