Substantial thermal conductivity reduction in mischmetal skutterudites Mm_xCo_4Sb_12 prepared under high-pressure conditions, due to uneven distribution of the rare-earth elements

Thermoelectric mischmetal-filled Mm(x)Co(4)Sb(12) (Mm: natural cocktail of rare-earth elements, mostly Ce and La) skutterudites have been synthesized and sintered in one step under high-pressure conditions at 3.5 GPa in a piston-cylinder hydrostatic press. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction patterns disp...
