Abstract
The electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity and low-frequency internal friction of Cr-75(FexMn1-x)(25) (x = 0.64, 0.72) alloys are studied in the temperature range 77-300 K. The initial increase in the resistivity and th e decrease in the thermal conductivity as temperature decreases below T-N a re attributed to the progressive opening of the energy gap related to the a ntiferromagnetic transition in the alloys. The energy gap is estimated and the lower limit of value 2 Delta(T-C)/k(B)T(C) is 1.13 and 1.30 for Cr-75(F exMn1-x)(25) of x = 0.64 and 0.72, respectively. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
