Abstract

. In comparison, the hardness and fracture toughness of the 1123 K sintered sample decrease by 24% and 5%, respectively, which is likely due to the weakening of fine-grain strengthening. This work reveals the correlation between microstructure and mechanical properties, providing guidance for the synergistic optimization of thermoelectric and mechanical performance of the material.
