Abstract
Polycrystalline filled Skutterudite compounds BaxCo4Sb12(0-x-0.5) are synthesized by high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) technique. The thermal conductivity for CoSb3is depressed significantly by Ba-filling combined HPHT technique. The value of 1.25 Wm-1K-1for Ba0.372Co4Sb12is obtained at 633K. The dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit ZT, increases with temperature increasing and reaches a maximal value of 1.01 at 663 K.
