摘要
Thermoelectric properties of materials with compositions on and near the band crossing line connecting Mg(2)Sn(0.76)sGe(0.22)Sb(0.015) and Mg2Sn0.015Si0.3Sb0.015 in the Mg2Sn-Mg2Ge-Mg2Si system are investigated. Although ZTs are very similar, power factors are different. On the line, the power factor decreases from Mg2Sn0.76Ge0.22Sb0.015 to Mg2Sn0.685Si0.3Sb0.015, and off the line, the power factor also decreases. The output power and energy conversion efficiency are calculated using engineering power factor (PF)(eng) and figure of merit (ZT)(eng). It is shown that although similar energy conversion efficiency of 11% could be achieved for all compositions studied, the output power are different, increasing from similar to 9.1 W cm(-2) for Mg2Sn0.765Si0.3Sb0.015 to similar to 10.3 W cm(-2) for Mg2Sn0.765Ge0.22Sb0.015, due to the different power factors.
