Role of Ag in textured-annealed Bi2Ca2Co1.7Ox thermoelectric ceramic

Bi2Ca2Co1.7Ox thermoelectric ceramics with small Ag additions (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 wt.%) have been successfully grown from the melt, using the laser floating zone method and subsequently annealed at 800 °C for 24 h. The microstructure has shown a reduction of the amount of secondary phases for Ag c...
