Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for connecting skutterudite thermoelectric material and electrodes. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric materials are a class of materials that use the Seebeck effect and the Peltier effect for the mutual conversion of thermal energy and electrical energy. It has great potential utilization value. In practical application of bulk thermoelectric materials, it is necessary to connect P-type thermoelectric materials and N-type thermoelectric materials with electrode materials to form thermoelectric pairs, and then use several thermoelectric pairs to form thermoelectric devices with a certain power. The contact resistance between thermoelectric materials and electrodes can significantly reduce the maximum conversion efficiency and output power of thermoelectric devices. Thermoelectric devices are required to work continuously for several years to more than ten years at the service temperature, which pose...
