Solution-based synthesis routes to thermoelectric Bi2Ca2Co1.7Ox
The synthesis of Bi2Ca2Co1.7Ox misfit compounds by different processing routes, i.e. classical solid-state, and two solution methods namely sol-gel via nitrates and a polymer route, has been investigated. A comparison among the final products has been performed using DTA, TGA, X-ray diffraction, sca...

| Sumario: | The synthesis of Bi2Ca2Co1.7Ox misfit compounds by different processing routes, i.e. classical solid-state, and two solution methods namely sol-gel via nitrates and a polymer route, has been investigated. A comparison among the final products has been performed using DTA, TGA, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and thermoelectric characterizations. All the samples obtained by solution synthesis show a very important increase in ZT, as compared to the solid state prepared samples, due to a significant decrease in the electrical resistivity values. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. |
