Title:
THERMOELECTRIC MATERIAL
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2011034997
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a thermoelectric material which has high electrical conductivity and low thermal conductivity, in an oxide semiconductor having a perovskite structure.

The thermoelectric material is composed of the oxide semiconductor having the perovskite structure expressed by one of composition formula A1-xSquarex/3L2x/3BO3, composition formula A1-xLa2x/3Squarex/3BO3 and composition formula L1-x-yAxSquareyBO3. Here, Square represents a lattice defect, and L is La or Ln. An "A"site is doped with the La or Ln to improve electrical conductivity. Further, the "A" site includes the lattice defect to reduce the thermal conductivity by lattice vibration.
