In this paper, the Co1−xNixSb3+y system (x=0.1,0.2; y=0, 0.05) has been prepared by direct current induced hot press and annealing. Pores were made by annealing pressed Co1−xNixSb3.05 pellets into Co1−xNixSb3 pellets during annealing. It was found that from room temperature to 500°C, the pores with diameter larger than 1μm has significantly increased the Seebeck coefficient, considerably decreased the thermal conductivity, almost maintained the electrical conductivity constant, and therefore markedly improved the dimensionless figure of merit (ZT) of Co1−xNixSb3 system. By comparing the samples, we conclude that inducing pores into skutterudites is an effective route to greatly improve the ZT.
