Article Description

Perovskite-type CaDyMnO, CaDyMnO, and CaDyReMnO (Re = La, Nd, Sm) were prepared by solid-state reaction, and their thermoelectric properties were evaluated between 300 and 1000 K. All were single-phase, with an orthorhombic structure, and had metal-like temperature dependence of resistivity and Seebeck coefficient. The second doping element, Re = La, Nd, or Sm, introduced a larger carrier concentration, leading to a decrease in both resistivity and Seebeck coefficient. This contributed to lower thermal conductivity by introducing a second element into the system. The highest figure of merit, 0.20, was obtained for Re = La at 973 K; this was an increase of almost 100% compared with CaDyMnO at the same temperature.
