Abstract

The polycrystalline TiO ₂@TiC _0.5-xO _0.5+x ceramics with core-shell structure were prepared through the spark plasma sintering process. Both thermoelectric (TE) transport properties and microstructure of the ceramics were investigated. The TiO ₂ shell had a remarkable effect on the transport properties of the system. Large electrical conductivity and thermopower was observed in coating 15% TiO ₂@TiC _0.5O _0.5 sample. The maximum power factor is 8.1 × 10 ^-4 W m ^-1 K ^-2 and the corresponding ZT value is 0.3 at 873 K for 15% TiO ₂@TiC _0.5O _0.5.
