Effect of Y, La, and Yb simultaneous doping on the thermal conductivity and thermoelectric performances of CaMnO3 ceramics

Triple doping of CaMnO3 in different stoichiometric proportions has been studied in bulk sintered materials. They were prepared through the classical ceramic route using planetary milling to decrease the precursors particle sizes. It has been found that particle sizes decrease with the amount of dop...
