Abstract: | The thermoelectric properties of Sr0.9R0.1TiO3 (R=Y, La, Sm, Gd, Dy) have been measured from room temperature to 1073 K. The electrical conductivities and Seebeck coefficients are independent of the kind of rare earth elements in the temperature range, so the figure of merits are influenced by the difference in the thermal conductivities. The thermal conductivities decrease with doping according to the rare earth atomic mass and ionic radius. Sr0.9Dy0.1TiO3 shows the highest figure of merit of the investigated samples, reaching 3.84×10?4 K?1 at 573 K. |
