Enhanced thermoelectric performance in GaxCo4Sb12.3-yTey skutterudites via suppressing bipolar effects for commercial application

The n-type filled and doped skutterudites GaxCo4Sb12.3 and Ga0.2Co4Sb11.3Te composites with the well-distributed GaSb nanoinclusions are synthesized through the manipulating of metastable Ga fillers and enrichment of Sb by an in-situ method with a proper annealing procedure. Ga atoms can fill the ic...
