摘要:

为了提高热电性能,提出了垂直于温度梯度的P-N-P突变异质结构模型。P-N-P异质结被认为是一种突变双极结晶体管,这是由于外部施加的温度梯度对耗尽层的影响。以Bi_2 Te_3和Bi_(0.5)Sb_(1.5)Te_3分别作为N型和P型热电材料为例,实现了在放大工作功率的同时,独立控制塞贝克系数和电导率的目的。计算结果表明,该模型的Seebeck系数可达3312 V/K,ZTmax值为45或425,是体材料和薄膜的几十倍甚至几百倍。

英文摘要:

We present a model for P-N-P abrupt heterostructures vertical to temperature gradient to improve the thermoelectric performance. The P-N-P heterostructure is considered as an abrupt bipolar junction transistor due to an externally applied temperature gradient paralleled to depletion layers. Taking Bi2Te3 and Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 as N-type and P-type thermoelectric materials respectively for example, we achieve the purpose of controlling the Seebeck coefficient and the electrical conductivity independently while amplifying operation power. The calculated results show that the Seebeck coefficient can reach 3312V/K, and the ZTmax values of this model are 45 or 425, which are tens or even hundreds of times greater than those of bulk materials and films.
