- The thermoelectric properties of pure and doped UO2, namely the thermal and electrical conductivities and the thermopower, are assessed. We adopt the small polaron theory of the Mott type insulators, wherein the charge carriers, the electron and hole on the U3+ and U5+ ions, are treated as small polarons. For the thermal conductivity, the small polaron theory is applicable at temperatures above 1500 K. A review of the experimental data on the temperature dependence of the aforementioned transport properties is made. The data include UO2 with dopants such as Cr2O3, Gd2O3, Y2O3 and Nb2O5. We compare the applications of the theory with the data. Two limiting regimes, adiabatic and nonadiabatic, with the ensuing expressions for the conductivities and the thermoelectric power are considered. We discuss both the merits and shortcomings of the putative small polaron model and the simplification thereof as applied to pure and doped uranium dioxide. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
