Thermoelectric alloy achieving large figure of merit by reducing oxide and process of manufacturing thereof
 Oxide is undesirably grown on the surface of grains of thermoelectric alloy, and the resistivity of the thermoelectric alloy is decreased due to the oxide; however, the oxide is reduced with hydrogen gas before the powder is solidified, and the pieces of thermoelectric alloy produced from the oxygen-free powder achieve a large figure of merit.
