     an approach to introduce in situ nanoprecipitates into bulk filled skutterudites is developed through controlling the oxidation process of the fillers. yb0.3co4sb12 is selected as the base material, and prolonged oxidation at high temperatures in sealed quartz tubes under a low pressure of oxygen leads to the formation of yb2o3 nanoinclusions. transmission electron microscopy shows that the yb2o3 nanoprecipitates are created within the skutterudite crystal grains through an internal oxidation mechanism. with increased time of oxidation, the amount of yb2o3 nanoprecipitates is increased and the nanoprecipitates are more uniformly distributed in the matrix. for the samples oxidized for 10 days, the lattice thermal conductivity is reduced by about 19% at 850 k compared with the yb0.3co4sb12 matrix. the reduction in the lattice thermal conductivity originates from additional phonon scattering by the yb2o3 nanoprecipitates, leading to a maximum zt of 1.3.
