摘要
Ternary Pb-Bi-S compounds emerge as potential thermoelectric materials owing to low thermal conductivity, but the origin of their intrinsic low lattice thermal conductivities lacks further investigation. Herein, a series of ternary PbmBi2S3+m (m = 1-10) compounds are synthesized and their crystal structure evolutions with increasing m values are clearly unclosed. The room-temperature lattice thermal conductivities in PbBi2S4, Pb3Bi2S6 and Pb6Bi2S9 can reach at 0.57, 0.56 and 0.80 W m−1 K−1, respectively, outperforming other ternary sulfur-based compounds. Theoretical calculations show that the low lattice thermal conductivities in PbmBi2S3+m (m = 1-10) mainly originate from soft phonon dispersion caused by strong lattice anharmonicity, and both asymmetric chemical bond and lone pair electrons (Pb 6s2 and Bi 6s2) can favorably block phonon propagation. Furthermore, the elastic measurements also confirm relatively low sound velocities and shear modulus, and the Grüneisen parameter (γ) calculated by sound velocities can reach at 1.67, 1.85 and 1.94 in PbBi2S4, Pb3Bi2S6 and Pb6Bi2S9, respectively. Finally, the intrinsic low lattice thermal conductivities in PbmBi2S3+m (m = 1-10) contribute to promising thermoelectric performance, and the maximum ZT values of 0.47, 0.38 and 0.45 can be achieved in undoped PbBi2S4, Pb3Bi2S6 and Pb6Bi2S9, respectively.
