In this study, bulk ternary alloy Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 was fabricated by mechanical alloying combined with hot pressing (HP) and spark plasma sintering process (SPS), respectively. Differences in microstructure and thermoelectric properties between HP samples and SPS specimens with different ball milling parameters were investigated visually. The results showed that certain improvement in rotate speed of ball milling process can reduce the formation time of Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 powders from 60 h to 12 h. Mechanical alloying process had an important effect on the Seebeck coefficient of Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 alloy, negative Seebeck coefficient may even appear due to the deformation induced donor-like effect. The study also discovered that laminated structure was much more familiar in hot pressed Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 alloy compared with that in the spark plasma sintering samples. The figure of merit of Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 alloy was enhanced with the increasing hot pressing temperature and reached 0.0027 K-1 around room temperature. Spark plasma sintered samples with 450 rpm + 60 h + 20:1 ball milling parameters have the maximum figure of merit 0.0048 K-1 which is about 1.5 times higher than the maximum TE value of HP samples.
