We attempt to improve the carrier mobility of Co-doped β-FeSi2 by Ni addition. The effect of dopants on the structural, electrical, and thermoelectric properties is investigated. The result shows that the metallic ε-phase increases with Ni and the solubility of Ni for β-phase is 1%. The presence of the ε-phase decreases the solubility of both Co and Ni in the β-phase. As Ni is added, the Seebeck coefficient decreases because of the formation of the ε-phase. At high temperatures, the ρ decreases with Ni doping because of the improved mobility. The thermal conductivity slightly decreases with Ni probably due to the porosity. As a result, the highest ZT value of 0.31 is obtained in the 1% Ni-substituted sample.
