High-density polycrystalline samples (above 98% of the theoretical density) of Ag8GeTe6 were prepared by solid-state reactions of Ag2Te, GeTe, and Te, followed by hot-pressing. The thermoelectric properties were measured at temperatures ranging from room temperature to around 700 K. The thermal conductivity values were extremely low (0.25 Wm(-1) K-1 at room temperature), and consequently Ag8GeTe6 exhibited a relatively high thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT = 0.48 at 703 K.
