description | We demonstrate an advanced approach using state of the art in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to understand the interplay between nanostructures and thermoelectric (TE) properties of high‐performance Mg‐doped Zn4Sb3 TE systems. By using the technique, microstructure and crystal evolutions of TE material have been dynamically captured as a function of temperature from 300 K to 573 K. On heating, we have clearly observed precipitation and growth of a Zn‐rich secondary phase as nanoinclusions in the matrix of primary Zn4Sb3 phase. Elemental mapping by STEM‐EDX spectroscopy reveals enrichment of Zn in the secondary Zn6Sb5 nanoinclusions during the thermal processing without decomposition. Such nanostructures strongly enhances phonon scattering, resulting in a decrease in the thermal conductivity leading to a zT value of 1.4 at 718 K.
