<报告简介>
报告摘要：While the thermoelectric figure of merit zT above 300K has seen significant improvement in recent years, progress in zT at lower temperatures has been slow, mainly limited by the relatively low Seebeck coefficient and high thermal conductivity. In this talk we present our first-principles computation of the phonon drag effect – a coupling phenomenon between electrons and non-equilibrium phonons that has long been regarded as not beneficial for thermoelectric applications – and show that this effect can in fact be exploited to enhance the Seebeck coefficient, while reducing the phonon thermal conductivity. While such trends at first sight seems to be impossible since the high thermal conductivity is also the cause of large phonon drag effect, a key insight we gained from the first-principles simulation is that the phonons contributing to phonon drag and to thermal conductivity do not spectrally overlap. In this light, we examine the effect of an ideal phonon filter on enhancing zT in silicon. By selecting phonons which contribute more to the phonon drag than to the thermal conductivity and filtering out others, zT of silicon at room temperature can be enhanced to ~0.25 and even larger benefit can be gained at lower temperatures. Some practically feasible phonon filters including one using nanocluster scattering are also discussed to achieve such selectivity. We hope this work shows a new approach towards better themoelectrics by harnessing non-equilibrium phonons.
