Abstract

International audience; The new phase Na 2 VO(HPO 4) 2 was synthesized by sodium/proton ion exchange between NaI and VO (H 2 PO 4) 2 in hexanol. The exchange of two protons by two sodium ions causes a structural reorganization leading to a new original phase. The crystal structure was solved by continuous 3D Electron Diffraction, consisting of recording a video in diffraction mode during the continuous sample holder rotation in order to acquire a complete dataset in a shortest time in order to avoid the deterioration of this electron beam sensitive material. The individual Electron Diffraction patterns were extracted from the video, processed by conventional electron diffraction crystallography programs (PETS, JANA2006) and the resulting structural model calculated by the charge flipping algorithm was refined from powder X-ray diffraction data. This material crystallizes in an orthorhombic unit cell in the Iba2 (45) space group, with the cell parameters a = 13.86852(19), b = 13.7985(2), c = 7.47677(9). Electrochemical studies show that up to 0.66 Na f.u. −1 could be removed from Na 2 VO(HPO 4) 2 .

Abstract

International audience; In this study, we demonstrate the use of elemental precursors (Cu,Sb,S) to synthesize tetrahedrite Cu12Sb4S13 using an industrial eccentric vibratory mill. Mechanochemical synthesis of tetrahedrite leads to the formation of covellite (CuS), skinnerite (Cu3SbS3) or famatinite (Cu3SbS4) in dependence on milling time. However, the composite product can be modified in favour of prevailing tetrahedrite when Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) treatment is applied after milling. The as-synthesized and sintered products are composed of polydisperse nanosized particles with dimensions up to 250 nm. The thermoelectric measurements reveal a maximum value of figure-of-merit ZT = 0.67 @ 700 K, as a consequence of a relatively high power factor (1.07 mW m−1 K−2) and a low thermal conductivity (1.12 W m−1 K−1). The obtained zT values of products prepared in an industrial mill are comparable to the ones reported for compounds synthesized using laboratory mills. The synthesis of ternary and quaternary sulphides by a scalable and industrializable milling process represents a prospective route for mass production of thermoelectric materials.

Abstract

International audience; A new class of cost‐efficient n‐type thermoelectric sulfides with a layered structure is reported, namely MnBi4S7 and FeBi4S7. Theoretical calculations combined with synchrotron X‐ray/neutron diffraction analyses reveal the origin of their electronic and thermal properties. The complex low‐symmetry monoclinic crystal structure generates an electronic band structure with a mixture of heavy and light bands near the conduction band edge, as well as vibrational properties favorable for high thermoelectric performance. The low thermal conductivity can be attributed to the complex layered crystal structure and to the existence of the lone pair of electrons in Bi3+. This feature combined with the relatively high power factor lead to a figure of merit as high as 0.21 (700 K) in undoped MnBi4S7, making this material a promising n‐type candidate for low‐ and intermediate‐temperature thermoelectric applications.

Abstract

International audience; Tetrahedrites are promising p-type thermoelectric materials for energy recovery. We present here the first investigation of the structure and thermoelectric properties of copper-rich tetrahedrites, Cu12+xSb4S13 (0 < x 0 consist of two tetrahedrite phases. In situ neutron diffraction data demonstrate that on heating, the two tetrahedrite phases coalesce into a single tetrahedrite phase at temperatures between 493 and 553 K and that this transition shows marked hysteresis on cooling. Our structural data indicate that copper ions become mobile above 393 K. Marked changes in the temperature dependence of the electrical and thermal transport properties of the copper-rich phases occur at the onset of copper mobility. Excess copper leads to a significant reduction in the total thermal conductivity, which for the nominal composition Cu14Sb4S13 reaches a value as low as 0.44 W m(-1) K-1 at room temperature, and to thermoelectric properties consistent with phonon liquid electron crystal (PLEC) behavior.

Abstract

International audience; A univalent copper hyper-stoichiometric stannoidite Cu8+xFe3–xSn2S12 with 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5 has been synthesized using mechanical alloying followed by spark plasma sintering. The X-ray diffraction analysis combined with 57Fe and 119Sn Mössbauer investigations has allowed the charge distribution of the cationic species on the various sites to be established and suggests the possibility of a small tin deficiency. The transport properties show a remarkable crossover from a semiconducting to a metal-like behavior as the copper content increases from x = 0 to x = 0.5, whereas correlatively the Seebeck coefficient decreases moderately, with S values ranging from 310 to 100 μV/K. The thermal conductivity decreases as the temperature increases showing low values at high temperature, far below those reported in related stannite materials. The investigation of the thermoelectric properties shows that the ZT figure of merit is dramatically enhanced by the copper hyper-stoichiometry by a factor of 5 going from 0.07 for x = 0 to 0.35 for x = 0.5 at 630 K. This thermoelectric behavior is interpreted on the basis of a model involving the Cu–S framework as the conducting electronic network where the Fe2+/Fe3+ species play the role of hole reservoir.

Abstract

International audience; Bulk polycrystalline samples in the series Ti1-xNbxS2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.075) were prepared using mechanical alloying synthesis and spark plasma sintering. X-ray diffraction analysis coupled with high resolution transmission electron microscopy indicates the formation of trigonal TiS2 by high energy ball-milling. The as-synthesized particles consist of pseudo-ordered TiS2 domains of around 20-50 nm, joined by bent atomic planes. This bottom-up approach leads, after spark plasma sintering, to homogeneous solid solutions, with a niobium solubility limit of x = 0.075. Microstructural observations evidence the formation of small crystallites in the bulk compounds with a high density of stacking faults. The large grain boundary concentration coupled with the presence of planar defects, leads to a substantial decrease in the thermal conductivity to 1.8 W/mK at 700 K. This enables the figure of merit to reach ZT = 0.3 at 700 K for x = 0.05, despite the lower electron mobility in mechanically alloyed samples due to small crystallite/grain size and structural defects. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract

International audience; A family of phases, CoxTiS2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.75) has been prepared and characterised by powder X-ray and neutron diffraction, electrical and thermal transport property measurements, thermal analysis and SQUID magnetometry. With increasing cobalt content, the structure evolves from a disordered arrangement of cobalt ions in octahedral sites located in the van der Waals' gap (x ≤ 0.2), through three different ordered vacancy phases, to a second disordered phase at x ≥ 0.67. Powder neutron diffraction reveals that both octahedral and tetrahedral inter-layer sites are occupied in Co0.67TiS2. Charge transfer from the cobalt guest to the TiS2 host affords a systematic tuning of the electrical and thermal transport properties. At low levels of cobalt intercalation (x andlt; 0.1), the charge transfer increases the electrical conductivity sufficiently to offset the concomitant reduction in |S|. This, together with a reduction in the overall thermal conductivity leads to thermoelectric figures of merit that are 25% higher than that of TiS2, ZT reaching 0.30 at 573 K for CoxTiS2 with 0.04 ≤ x ≤ 0.08. Whilst the electrical conductivity is further increased at higher cobalt contents, the reduction in |S| is more marked due to the higher charge carrier concentration. Furthermore both the charge carrier and lattice contributions to the thermal conductivity are increased in the electrically conductive ordered-vacancy phases, with the result that the thermoelectric performance is significantly degraded. These results illustrate the competition between the effects of charge transfer from guest to host and the disorder generated when cobalt cations are incorporated in the inter-layer space. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2016.

Abstract

International audience; The purity and structural stability of the high thermoelectric performance Cu12Sb4S13 and Cu10.4Ni1.6Sb4S13 tetrahedrite phases, synthesized by solid-liquid-vapor reaction and Spark Plasma Sintering, were studied at high temperature by Rietveld refinement using high resolution X-ray powder diffraction data, DSC/TG measurements and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. In a complementary study, the crystal structure of Cu10.5Ni1.5Sb4S13 as a function of temperature was investigated by powder neutron diffraction. The temperature dependence of the structural stability of ternary Cu12Sb4S13 is markedly different to that of the nickel-substituted phases, providing clear evidence for the significant and beneficial role of nickel substitution on both sample purity and stability of the tetrahedrite phase. Moreover, kinetic effects on the phase stability/decomposition have been identified and discussed in order to determine the maximum operating temperature for thermoelectric applications. The thermoelectric properties of these compounds have been determined for high density samples (>98%) prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering and therefore can be used as reference values for tetrahedrite samples. The maximum ZT of 0.8 was found for Cu10.4Ni1.6Sb4S13 at 700 K. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract

Copper doped-Ba 4 Y Mn 3− x Cu x O 11.5± δ samples were synthesized by an organic gel assisted citrate process. X-ray diffraction of compositions with x =0.002, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02 and 0.04 does not reveal any change of hexagonal perovskite structure on doping. The effects of Cu-doping on the microstructure and dielectric properties were investigated. Cu doping modifies the electrical properties at the level of the impedance characteristics of both grain and grain boundary and to understand these different behaviours, we have carried out high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis. Among the Ba 4 Y Mn 3− x Cu x O 11.5± δ specimens studied, the composition x =0.002 shows a permittivity ( e ′ r ) higher than the undoped compound and a lower loss tangent (tan δ ) over several orders of magnitude of frequency.

Abstract

In this work, four different methods, i.e. solid state reaction, citrate sol–gel process, Pechini and microwave are employed to synthesize Ba4YMn3O11.5±δ ceramics. The phase structure of the powders can be well indexed as a 12R hexagonal perovskite crystallizing in space group R 3 ¯ m . The density and morphology (average grain size) of sintered samples vary with the synthesis processes. The dielectric permittivity and loss tangent of the samples have been measured in the frequency range 1 kHz–1 MHz. The results show that they are very sensitive to the synthesis process. The best properties are obtained for the sample synthetized by citrate process. This compound has a high dielectric permittivity ( e ′ r = 10 4 ), which is almost frequency independent over the 100 Hz–100 kHz range from room temperature to 150 °C. This has been attributed to the IBLC mechanism. By impedance spectroscopy analysis, all the compounds were found to be electrically heterogeneous, exhibiting semiconducting grains and insulating grain boundaries. Finally, we show that the IBLC model is well adapted to the materials obtained by the modified citrate synthesis route, but not to the ones from the other routes.
