Abstract Polycrystalline skutterudites Ba0.32Co4Sb12−xTex (nominally x from 0.1 to 0.9) were successfully synthesized by high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) method. The XRD results indicate
that all samples have the crystal structure of single phase CoSb3. The dependence of electric transport properties for Ba0.32Co4Sb12−xTex samples on Te filling fraction and pressure has been investigated at room temperature. All samples show n-type conduction.The absolute value of Seebeck coefficient and the electrical resistivity decrease with the increasing of Te content. The maximum power factor (9.7 μWcm−1K−2)is obtained for Ba0.32Co4Sb11.9Te0.1 synthesized at 1.5 GPa and 900 K.
