Title:
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THERMOELECTRIC MATERIAL AND MANUFACTURING THERMOELECTRIC MODULE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3543650
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable manufacturing of a thermoelectric material having a very high performance index [(Seebeck coefficient)2/(electric resistivity × thermal conductivity)].
SOLUTION: According to this manufacturing method, a thermoelectric material of a compsn. contg. at least one kind of element selected among Bi and Sb and first one kind of element selected among Te and Se is manufactured such that a material 1 having an absolute value &verbar α&verbar of thermoelectromotive force, 230≤&verbar α&verbar ≤320 μV/K and electric resistivity ρ, 1.2×10-5≤ρ≤3×10-5 Ωm is selected as a blank to be extruded and deformed by the extrusion, etc., to manufacture a thermoelectric material having a very high performance index.
