Abstract
The thermoelectric power above room temperature of the unconventional lead vanadate glass is reported. It has been observed that the thermoe lectric power shows weak variation with temperature and its magnitude decreases with increase in V2O5 content in the glass compositions. Hei kes' formula for the thermoelectric power can give an adequate explana tion for the experimental data. Thermoelectric power data also give in formation for the formation of small polarons in these glasses.
