2 00 1 Thermoelectric power and transport properties of pure and Al - doped MgB 2
نویسنده
چکیده
We have measured the thermoelectric power, S, and resistivity, ρ, of pure and Al-doped MgB2. S is positive and increases linearly with temperature above the superconducting transition temperature, Tc. Deviations from the linear dependence appear at higher temperature, T > T0 ≈ 160K. Tc and T0 both decrease with Al doping whereas the slope of S(T) in the linear range increases with the Al content. The data are discussed in terms of doping induced changes of the Fermi surface and the density of states at the Fermi level. 74.25.Fy, 74.60.-w, 74.62.Dh, 74.70.Ad Typeset using REVTEX

The Zintl compound Ca5Al2Sb6 is a promising thermoelectric material with exceptionally low lattice thermal conductivity resulting from its complex crystal structure. In common with the Al analogue, Ca5In2Sb6 is naturally an intrinsic semiconductor with a low p-type carrier concentration. Here, we improve the thermoelectric properties of Ca5In2Sb6 by substituting Zn 2+ on the In site. With incre...
