摘要

Energy is a scarce resource.~1Nevertheless, heat (thermal energy) can be found escaping unused almost everywhere you look. In the future, exploiting waste heat to produce reusable energy may contribute to the more efficient utilization of existing resources by using so-called energy harvesting or waste heat recovery approaches. Highly efficient, cost-effective thermoelectric (TE) generators are being proposed to convert waste heat in automobiles and large-scale industrial plants, such as furnaces and refuse incinerators, into reusable energy-with no moving parts. Thermoelectrics, as a recycler of "nomadic" energy supplies, will play an important role in complementing renewable energies and furthermore make a significant contribution to climate protection. In particular, the automotive market could play a very key role in the advance of thermoelectrics: in the near future based on exhaust energy conversion and longer term for e-cars that have distributed climate control and Li-battery power. It is projected that TE materials for climate-controlled seats and zonal cooling applications may be large markets.~2 Up until about 1990, thermoelectric applications mainly involved three classes of materials: Ⅴ_2-Ⅵ_3-compounds (such as Bi_2Te_3 alloys); Ⅳ-Ⅵ-compounds (such as PbTe), and the Ⅳ-Ⅳ group alloys (e.g., Si_(1-x)-Ge_x).~(3,4) Since recent methods from the field of nanotechnology have been used, the quality of materials-and by association efficiency of conversion-has improved significantly.5 To compete in the automotive industry requires the cost-effective production of large tonnages of TE materials. Consequently, many R&D efforts are concentrated on alternative materials, which occur abundantly, in contrast to tellurium, and can be isolated at low cost and with high purity.
