Abstract

The invention relates to a double-layer / multilayer thermoelectric device and belongs to the technical field of thermoelectric conversion. The double-layer / multilayer thermoelectric device at least comprises thermoelectric sub-modules corresponding to two different temperature segments and an insulating material layer located in front of the thermoelectric sub-modules; the at least one thermoelectric sub-module comprises a thermoelectric material with low low-temperature electric conductivity and high high-temperature electric conductivity, namely a high-temperature ZT value is more than 10 times higher than a low-temperature ZT value; the thermoelectric material with low room temperature electric conductivity and high high-temperature electric conductivity corresponds to the high-temperature segment thermoelectric sub-module; each thermoelectric sub-module comprises a plurality of pairs of n-type and / or p-type thermoelectric arms, wherein the internal structure of each thermoelectric arm is five layers of a high-melting-point metal layer, a metallization layer, a thermoelectric material, a metallization layer and a high-melting-point metal layer from top to bottom. The obtained double-layer / multilayer thermoelectric material device can still keep the maximum conversion efficiency Eta max to be not less than 3% even when the temperature difference is only less than 300k. The device and the method in the invention are not high to the requirement of the sintering process, are lower to the requirement on equipment, are low in production cost, and are more suitable for the requirement of industrial large-scale production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of thermoelectric conversion, and in particular relates to a double-layer / multilayer thermoelectric device and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] As an environmentally friendly renewable energy technology, thermoelectric conversion technology has received extensive attention at home and abroad in recent years. Thermoelectric power generation technology is a technology that uses the seebeck effect of semiconductor materials to directly convert temperature differences into electricity.
