Thermoelectric oxides are of increasing interest as they are produced from relatively abundant, low-cost and low-toxicity materials. The production of the precursors and the ceramic fabrication methods are discussed with reference to the effect on final properties. The different oxide systems that are in common use are then described. Finally, some of the future challenges for wide-scale commercialization of these materials are outlined.
