Thermal Aging Behavior of CoSb3 with Protective Mo Coating

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to prevent the sublimation of Sb, protective Mo coatings were deposited on the CoSb3 substrate by DC magnetron sputtering. Thermal aging behavior of CoSb3 with Mo coating was investigated by accelerated experiment at 650oC for 24h. The results indicated that Mo coatings exhibit columnar crystal and body-centered cubic structure. It was found that the weight loss decreases with the increasing thickness of Mo coating. In comparison with naked CoSb3 material, the degradation of thermoelectric properties of CoSb3 with Mo coatings decreases under accelerated thermal aging test.
