dc.description.abstract | Zintl compounds are promising thermoelectric materials for power generation as their electronic and thermal transport properties can be simultaneously engineered with anion/cation alloying. Recently, a peak thermoelectric figure-of-merit, zT, of 1.4 was achieved in a (Yb0.9 Mg0.1 )Cd1.2 Mg0.4 Zn0.4 Sb2 Zintl phase at 700 K. Although the effects of alloying Zn in lattice thermal conductivity had been studied thoroughly, how the Zn alloying affects its electronic transport properties has not yet been fully investigated. This study evaluates how the Zn alloying at Cd sites alters the band parameters of (Yb0.9 Mg0.1 )Cd1.6-x Mg0.4 Znx Sb2 (x=0-0.6) using the Single Parabolic Band model at 700 K. The Zn alloying increased the density-of-states effective mass (md* ) from 0.87 to 0.97 m0 . Among Zn-alloyed samples, the md* of the x=0.4 sample was the lowest (0.93 m0 ). The Zn alloying decreased the non-degenerate mobility (μ0 ) from 71 to 57 cm2 s-1 V-1 . Regardless of Zn alloying content, the μ0 of the Zn-alloyed samples were similar (∼57 cm2 s-1 V-1 ). Consequently, the x=0.4 with the highest zT exhibited the lowest weighted mobility (μW ). The lowest μW represents the lowest theoretical electronic transport properties among other x. The highest zT at x=0.4 despite the lowest μW was explained with a significant lattice thermal conductivity reduction achieved with Zn alloying with x=0.4, which outweighed the deteriorated electronic transport properties also due to the alloying. © 2023 The Authors.
