The materials were successfully combustion synthesized and spark plasma sintered with 98.0–99.6% of true density, and their thermoelectric properties were evaluated from room temperature to 850 K. The optimal lanthanum doping amount ratio x in the considered temperature range was from 0.06 to 0.08, in which Sr0.92La0.08TiO3 sample showed the maximum ZT of 0.22 at 800 K. This value was close to the highest recorded ZT at the same temperature up to now, and the ZT of most samples are higher than those synthesized by the conventional solid state reaction method. Thus, combustion synthesis is promising for producing perovskite-oxide thermoelectric materials for high-temperature application.The Japan Institute of MetalsJournal Articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/77071https://eprints.lib.hokudai.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2115/77071/1/Mater.%20Trans.%2048%285%29%201079.pdf1345-96781347-5320AA1151294XMATERIALS TRANSACTIONS485107910832007-05-01enginfo:doi/10.2320/matertrans.48.1079publisher
