摘要：
A setup based on dynamic method was developed for fast Seebeck coefficient measurement from room temperature to 473 K. Two T-type thermocouples with a response time of less than 0.1 s were used to measure the dynamic temperatures of the sample. The Cu wires of the two thermocouples served as leads for Seebeck voltage measurement. The dynamic temperature feature of the setup was characterized. Test measurements were conducted with LaCo0.9Cu0.1O3 and LaCo0.85Cu0.15O3 samples with the customized setup, and the results had a difference of +/-8.4% compared with the data provided by ZEM-2 (Ulvac-Riko, Japan), which showed that the Seebeck measurement with the customized setup was reliable. In addition, the error on the Seebeck coefficient caused by the dynamic variation of temperature was discussed. The setup described in this paper has the advantage of fast Seebeck coefficient measurement with a measurement speed of about 14-23 K min(-1). (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
