abstract = {Novel filled skutterudites BayNi4Sb12−xSnx (ymax = 0.93)
have been prepared by arc melting followed by annealing at
250, 350 and 450 °C up to 30 days in vacuum-sealed quartz
vials. Extension of the homogeneity region, solidus
temperatures and structural investigations were performed
for the skutterudite phase in the ternary Ni–Sn–Sb and
in the quaternary Ba–Ni–Sb–Sn systems. Phase
equilibria in the Ni–Sn–Sb system at 450 °C were
established by means of Electron Probe Microanalysis (EPMA)
and X-ray Powder Diffraction (XPD). With rather small cages
Ni4(Sb,Sn)12, the Ba–Ni–Sn–Sb skutterudite system is
perfectly suited to study the influence of filler atoms on
the phonon thermal conductivity. Single-phase samples with
the composition Ni4Sb8.2Sn3.8, Ba0.42Ni4Sb8.2Sn3.8 and
Ba0.92Ni4Sb6.7Sn5.3 were used to measure their physical
properties, i.e. temperature dependent electrical
resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity.
The resistivity data demonstrate a crossover from metallic
to semiconducting behaviour. The corresponding gap width was
extracted from the maxima in the Seebeck coefficient data as
a function of temperature. Single crystal X-ray structure
analyses at 100, 200 and 300 K revealed the thermal
expansion coefficients as well as Einstein and Debye
temperatures for Ba0.73Ni4Sb8.1Sn3.9 and
Ba0.95Ni4Sb6.1Sn5.9. These data were in accordance with the
Debye temperatures obtained from the specific heat (4.4 K <
T < 140 K) and Mössbauer spectroscopy (10 K < T < 290 K).
Rather small atom displacement parameters for the Ba filler
atoms indicate a severe reduction in the “rattling
behaviour” consistent with the high levels of lattice
thermal conductivity. The elastic moduli, collected from
Resonant Ultrasonic Spectroscopy ranged from 100 GPa for
Ni4Sb8.2Sn3.8 to 116 GPa for Ba0.92Ni4Sb6.7Sn5.3. The
thermal expansion coefficients were 11.8 × 10−6 K−1 for
Ni4Sb8.2Sn3.8 and 13.8 × 10−6 K−1 for
Ba0.92Ni4Sb6.7Sn5.3. The room temperature Vickers hardness
values vary within the range from 2.6 GPa to 4.7 GPa. Severe
plastic deformation via high-pressure torsion was used to
introduce nanostructuring; however, the physical properties
before and after HPT showed no significant effect on the
materials thermoelectric behaviour.},
