Abstract

Semiconducting Ba_6−3xNd_8+2xTi₁₈O₅₄ ceramics (with x = 0.00 to 0.85) were synthesized by the mixed oxide route followed by annealing in a reducing atmosphere; their high-temperature thermoelectric properties have been investigated. In conjunction with the experimental observations, atomistic simulations have been performed to investigate the anisotropic behavior of the lattice thermal conductivity. The ceramics show promising n-type thermoelectric properties with relatively high Seebeck coefficient, moderate electrical conductivity, and temperature-stable, low thermal conductivity; For example, the composition with x = 0.27 (i.e., Ba_5.19Nd_8.54Ti₁₈O₅₄) exhibited a Seebeck coefficient of S_1000K = 210 µV/K, electrical conductivity of σ_1000K = 60 S/cm, and thermal conductivity of k_1000K = 1.45 W/(m K), leading to a ZT value of 0.16 at 1000 K.
