Doping an element or more is widely used to regulate thermoelectric materials performance through adjusting electrical and thermal properties. In this work, a series of p-type Sb 2(1+ x ) Te 3 nanoflake composites are fabricated and tested. Excessive Sb in Sb 2(1+ x ) Te 3 causes high carrier density, which results in much larger electrical conductivity compared with that of pure Sb 2 Te 3 . The highest merit ZT of the Sb 2.18 Te 3 composite reaches to 1.22 at 523 K, and the average ZT value in Sb 2.18 Te 3 sample is above 1 obtained from 323 to 523 K, which is a decent ZT value at low–mid temperature zone for doped Sb 2 Te 3 -based composites. Self-doping element Sb into Sb 2 Te 3 nanoflakes is an effective strategy that has a significant influence on improving power factor and keeping low thermal conductivity. Sb 2(1+ x ) Te 3 nanostructure composites are synthesized by reflux chemical method. Comparing with other methods involving solid solution melting, high-energy ball milling and solvothermal reaction, reflux chemical reaction method is not only a more facile, timesaving and green way to produce nanoscale materials but also can be applied to mass production.
