BiCuSeO as state-of-the-art thermoelectric materials for energy conversion:from thin films to bulks
|
摘要
BiCuSeO-based thermoelectric material has attracted great attention as state-of-the-art thermoelectric materials since it was first reported in 2010. In this review,we update the studies on the BiCuSeO thin films first.Then, we focus on the most recent progress of multiple approaches that enhance the thermoelectric performance including advanced synthesized technologies,notable mechanisms for higher power factor(optimizing carrier concentration, carrier mobility, Seebeck coefficient)and doping effects predicted by calculation. And finally,aiming at further enhancing the performance of these materials and ultimately commercial application, we give a brief discussion on the urgent issues to which should be paid close attention.
