The thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity. Hall coefficient und thermoelectric power of Ag2Se have been measured between 80 and 600°K. In the low temperature semiconductor phase the thermal conductivity increases with increasing temperature due to the high amount of carrier contribution. The latter has been calculated using the Price formula. Agreement with experiment is satisfactory. The specific heat has been measured between 30 and 200°C. For the latent heat a value of (5.7 ± 0.5) cal/gr was determined in agreement with measurements of Bellati and Lussana 4. In addition to the transition at 133 °C an unknown new transition has been found at about 90 °C.

Stable quasicrystals exhibit specific and unusual physical properties, such as, diamagnetism, low electrical conductivity, low thermal conductivity, and large themoelectric power at room temperature. These properties can be understood with a Bragg's reflexions scheme due to their dense filled reciprocal space.This leads to small gaps on the Fermi surface (some tenths of eV), much narrower than the usual Hume-Rothery ones (of order of 0.5 eV) which explain their stability. These gaps lead to the existence of quasi Umklapp processes, crucial for the interpretation of thermoelectric power. In some cases, the positive phonon drag contribution due to Umklapp processes, add with the electronic one's and dominates at room temperature with a large positive thermoelectric power. A crude estimate of the figure of merit gives some hope for applications of some quasicrystals and high approximants as new thermoelectric materials.

In this study, some structure-sensitive thermophysical properties, namely, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of liquid binary alloys Al33.3Mg66.7, Mg47.6Zn52.4 and Mg33.3Zn66.7 (all in wt.%), as the most promising cast alloys to fabricate components for cars, aircraft and other complex engineering products, were investigated. The electrical conductivity and thermoelectric power were measured in a wide temperature range by the four-point contact method. The thermal conductivity was measured by the steady-state concentric cylinder method. The obtained results are compared with literature experimental and calculated data.

AbstractPure and Al2O3(2%, 5%, 8%) doped sintered ZnO (n-type) and pure sintered Ca3Co4O9 (p-type) pellets were prepared by conventional solid state synthesis starting from the oxides. The sintered pellets were cut by a diamond saw in a pillar shape (15 mm×5 mm×5 mm) for experimental checks. The best doped sample was 2 % Al2O3 ZnO showing Seebeck coefficient S = -180 mV/K and electrical conductivity σ = 8 S/cm at 400°C, while thermal conductivity κ = 1.8 W/m×K at 600°C. Typical values for Ca3Co4O9 were S = 82.5 mV/K and σ = 125 S/cm at 800°C, while κ = 1.01 W/m×K at 600°C. Several modules fabricated by elements cut from sintered pellets were tested and the best performance was obtained in the module formed by six 2 % Al2O3ZnO/ Ca3Co4O9 couples, that generated an output power P = 300 mV at 500°C (when ΔT = 260°C).

Abstract The Ga–Li system is very attractive for the development of microelectronic and Li-ion cell applications as negative electrodes. In this study, thermophysical properties such as density, surface tension, viscosity, thermal and electrical conductivity, and thermoelectric power were investigated. Taking into account the intermetallic compounds occurring in Ga–Li, the measurements were conducted in a temperature range of 323–773 K. The experimentally obtained results revealed lower density and surface tension with increasing Li additions. The viscosity, electrical conductivity and thermoelectric power slightly reduced with the addition of Li content to eutectic Ga–Sn–Zn. The opposite was true of thermal conductivity, which increased slightly. The performed Nusselt number and Peclet number calculations for eutectic Ga–Sn–Zn with Li additions show similar dependency as found in literature data for Ga and Ga–In alloys.
