Abstract Thermoelectric technology has been regarded as a perfect energy source on spacecraft thanks to its advantages such as no moving part, zero emission and high stability in harsh environment. ZnFexMn(2-x)O4 ceramics were fabricated and self-assembly structures were observed in the sample of some compositions, which may be of benefit to the thermoelectric performance. In this paper, the applications of thermoelectric technology on spacecraft were briefly reviewed. The synthesis method and crystal structures of ZnFexMn(2-x)O4 ceramics were also introduced. Furthermore, the phase transitions in the system were carefully studied by SEM technique. Finally, the heat capacities and thermal diffusivities, which were key parameters of thermoelectric performance, were measured.
