The Effect of Grain Size and Density on the Thermoelectric Properties of Bi2Te3-PbTe Compounds

The effects of microstructure on thermoelectric properties were investigated in Bi 2 Te 3 -PbTe compounds of different grain size and density. Powders of two different sizes [0.1  μ m to 1  μ m (micropowder) and
