Abstract

Abstract: In_1.94Zn_0.03Ge_0.03 O₃ and Sr₂RuErO₆ composite ceramics have been prepared by the spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. Microstructure studies show that the Sr2RuErO6 phases are randomly dispersed in the In_1.94Zn_0.03Ge_0.03 O₃ matrix. The results show that the Seebeck coe±cient increases with increasing the amount of Sr₂RuErO₆, while the thermal conductivity of the composite samples is lower than that of the In_1.94Zn_0.03Ge_0.03 O₃ ceramic. The thermal conductivity of the 7 vol.% Sr₂RuErO₆ sample can decrease to 2.15 W·m^-1·K^-1 at 973 K, and the evaluated maximum ZT value is 0.23 for 3 vol.% Sr₂RuErO₆ samples at 973 K, which makes them promising materials for the thermoelectric devices.
