Problems solved by technology

However, these methods are complex in process, long in preparation period, expensive in use of equipment, and difficult to precisely control the composition, which seriously restricts the large-scale production of materials. Therefore, a new high-performance bismuth telluride that can precisely control the composition of the material, has a short preparation period, and is convenient for industrial production has been developed. The preparation technology of bulk thermoelectric materials is an important topic for its research
