Solubility study of Yb in n-type skutterudites YbxCo4Sb12 and their enhanced thermoelectric properties

The solubility of Yb in Yb[subscript x]Co[subscript 4]Sb[subscript 12 was reported to be 0.19 in bulk skutterudites made by melting and slow cooling method. Surprisingly we increased x close to 0.5 by a special sample preparation method: ball mill and hot press. We show that a higher Yb concentratio...
