AI 中文摘要
我们分析包含随机分布金属内含物的均匀半导体基体复合材料的热电响应,表明这类材料的性质受渗流转变(伴随背景电导率)的强烈影响;在渗流阈值附近,功率因子和热电优值强烈依赖于内含物的浓度与排布;最终,我们确定了可提升实际复合材料功率因子的有前景的参数区间。
英文摘要
We analyze thermoelectric response of composite materials comprising homogeneous semiconductor hosts with randomly distributed metallic inclusions. We demonstrate that the properties of such materials are strongly affected by the percolation transition (with background conductivity). We show that in vicinity of percolation threshold, the power factor and the thermoelectric figure of merit strongly depend on both the concentration and arrangement of inclusions. Finally, we identify promising regimes for enhancing the power factor in realistic composites.
