Abstract
AbstractTransition metal oxides and oxynitrides with perovskite-type structures are potential high temperature stable thermoelectric materials. With innovative soft chemistry synthesis procedures the crystallite size in complex oxide ceramics with perovskite-type structure can be decreased compared to classical synthesis routes and allows to lower the heat conductivity dramatically while a large power factor can be maintained at the same time. Submicron crystallites are beneficial to lower the lattice thermal conductivity without influencing the electron mobility.In this work, perovskite-type cobaltates, molybdates and manganates are studied. The influence of heterostructures and nanocrystalline domains in perovskite oxides/oxynitrides and the correlation with transport properties and Seebeck coefficient will be discussed.
