A structural and microstructural study was performed on several compositions of the Smy(FexNi1-x)4Sb12 system treated at three different pressures during the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. Aim of the study is to recognize the effect of applied pressure at a fixed temperature on composition, microstrain and domains size, due to the...

The effect of varying the applied pressure during the processing by spark plasma sintering (SPS) of samples belonging to the Smy(FexNi1-x)4Sb12 system has been investigated by evaluating the power factor of the obtained filled skutterudite. A strong dependence of both the electrical conductivity and the Seebeck coefficient on the applied...
