摘要：

This work presents a study on the thermoelectric properties of ultrafine grained Hf-Ti dual-doped VFeSb half-Heusler (HH) alloys treated by spark plasma sintering (SPS) at different temperatures. The concerned alloys were successfully synthesized by arc/induction melting and mechanical alloying (MA). Thermoelectric (TE) properties of Fe(V0.8Hf0.2)(1-x)TixSb (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4) HH samples were studied over the temperature range from 100 to 900 K. Hf and Ti as heavy elements were used as dopants to create point defects aiming to reduce the material's thermal conductivity by enhancing the phonon scattering. Since the transport properties of HH alloys are sensitive to heat treatment, the effect of sintering temperature is studied as well. It was found that the power factor is significantly improved by increasing the sintering temperature. As a result, the figure of merit was enhanced by similar to 10% for the Fe(V0.8Hf0.2)(0.8)Ti0.2Sb sample and by similar to 30% for the Fe(V0.8Hf0.2)(0.6)Ti0.4Sb sample which were sintered at 1123 K, compared to those sintered at 1023 K. The maximum value was recorded at 0.33 for the sample Fe(V0.8Hf0.2)Sb. This value is higher than that of the singly doped FeV0.9Hf0.1Sb sample with a maximum zT value of 0.08. Also, it is higher than the reported value of the FeVSb doped with Ti which shows maximum ZT of 0.174 calculated for FeV0.7Ti0.3Sb at 658 K.
