| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to develop thermoelectric materials that can withstand high temperatures, bulk nanocomposites composed of La-doped SrTiO3 (LSTO) and TiN were synthesized and scale-up studies were carried out. The microstructure and thermoelectric properties of these sintered materials were controlled by the amount of TiN added. A clear increase in conductivity was observed with the addition of TiN, and the power factorwas improved by controlling the volume fraction of TiN compared to the LSTO single phase. On the other hand, the lattice thermal conductivity was successfully reduced by suppressing the increase in the grain size of LSTO and TiN, and the maximum value of ZT, an index of thermoelectric performance, was 0.14 (775°C).

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
酸化物中に窒化物を導入したナノ複合体の合成を、本研究で開発した方法（つまり異種酸化物被覆、窒化処理、焼結といった従来存在する方法の組み合わせ）により、容易にした。また、このようなナノ複合材料のスケールアップを実施したことによって、産業上容易に生産可能となる。さらに、異種材料間の割合やその微細組織制御によって、導電性、熱起電力、熱伝導率を制御できる可能性を示し、複合材料の新たな可能性を示した研究である。
