摘要：A thermoelectric material having enhanced Seebeck coefficient is characterizedby a microstructure comprising nanoscale Pb inclusions dispersed in matrix substantiallycomposed of PbTe. The excess Pb is obtained either by adding Pb in an amount greaterthan the stoichiometric amount needed to form PbTe, or by adding an additive effectiveto getter Te so as to produce the desired excess. The method is generally applicable toenhance thermoelectric properties of compounds of Pb, Sn or Ge, and Te, Se, or S.
