Nevertheless, their applications are impeded by poor electrical conductivities and processabilities. Herein, novel n–p type carrier transport inversion MOF/carbon nanotube (CNT) thermoelectric hybrids are developed via controlled adjustment of the MOF/CNT composition. The low thermal conductivities of the MOFs provide optimized (zT) values of 0.071 and 0.025 for the n- and p-type thermoelectric hybrids, respectively. Moreover, a flexible thermoelectric generator consisting of seven p-n junction pairs in series provides a maximum open-circuit voltage of 11.2 mV and a maximum power of around 165.5 nW at a temperature difference of 20 K. This study introduces an alternative approach to creating high zT p- and n-type thermoelectric hybrids near room temperature by manipulating the composite ratio, and establishes a correlation between the framework structure and the thermoelectric performance, thereby supporting the development of MOF-based thermoelectric materials. |
