Description of the Book:

In the magnesium base TE material design, the solid solution formation is favored for reduction of thermal conductivity by lattice scattering effect. Since magnesium and silicon have low relative density, Mg2Si-base TE compounds are expected to improve the specific figure-of-merit. In this project, new material processing route is proposed and developed to make material search for ternary or quartic TE compounds and to make mass-production of Mg2Si-base TE materials. Effect of Si, Ge and Sn on the thermoelectricity is also discussed to find an optimum way of TE-materials design
