S. Ohno et al., THE ELECTRICAL-CONDUCTIVITY AND THERMOPOWER OF LIQUID AG1-CSEC ALLOYSWITH -LESS-THAN-OR-EQUAL-TO-C-LESS-THAN-OR-EQUAL-TO-1.0, Journal of non-crystalline solids, 207, 1996, pp. 98-101
Measurements of the electrical conductivity and thermopower of liquid
Ag1-cSec alloys have been extended to the composition range c greater
than or equal to 0.4 by using an ar on over pressure of 10 bar to prev
ent vaporisation of the Se. The composition dependence of the conducti
vity exhibits a minimum and a broad maximum near the compositions c =
0.4 and 0.65, respectively. The corresponding thermopower data show a
p-n transition at c = 0.36. The data have been analysed using equation
s derived from the Kubo-Greenwood expressions.
