Abstract

We have synthesized single crystalline Ba ₈Al _xSi _x-46 clathrates by using the flux Czochralski (CZ) method with Al-rich melt. The specific electric resistivity, the Seebeck coefficient and the power factor of single crystalline Ba ₈Al ₁₄Si ₃₂ were 0.73 mΩcm, 70.0μV/K and 6.8×10 ^-4V ²/K ²Ωm, respectively. These values are higher than that of single crystalline Ba ₈Al ₁₂Si ₃₄clathrate because of the reduced carrier concentration. It is indicated that Al contents and the carrier concentration of single crystalline Ba ₈Al _xSi _46-x can be controlled by using the flux Czochralski method.
