In this study, we demonstrated that the deposition of Sn on Ni–Fe wires using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) can be used to control the electrical resistivity of the wires. Furthermore, the effect of the deposition temperature on the resistivity of the Ni–Fe wires was investigated. The resistivity of the Sn-deposited Ni–Fe wires was found to increase monotonically with the deposition temperature from 550 to 850 °C. Structural and morphological analyses revealed that electron scattering by Ni3Sn2 and Fe3Sn particulates, which were the reaction products of LPCVD of Sn on the surface of the Ni–Fe wires, was the cause of the resistivity increase. These coalesced particulates displayed irregular shapes with an increase in the deposition temperature, and their size increased with the deposition temperature. Owing to these particulate characteristics, the Sn content increased with the deposition temperature. Furthermore, the temperature dependency of the Sn content followed a pattern very similar to that of the resistivity, indicating that the atomic content of Sn directly affected the resistivity of the Ni–Fe wires.

The temperature-dependent part of the electrical resistivity ρ(T) of a metal consists of the sum of two terms, one term being due to electron–phonon scattering ρcp(T) and the other term being due to electron–electron scattering ρcc(T). One may write[Formula: see text]where θD, is the Debye temperature of the metal and the coefficients C and A give the magnitudes of ρcp(T) and ρcc(T), respectively. For a metal whose electrical resistivity exhibits "simple" behavior, it had been expected that the measured data for ρ(T) would have the following properties. (i) The function f(T/θD) should approach (T/θD) for [Formula: see text]. (ii) The magnitude of the coefficient C should be the same, or nearly so, for all measured samples. (iii) The magnitude of the coefficient A should be the same, or nearly so, for all measured samples.The low-temperature ρexpt(T) data for potassium, which has by now been measured for many samples, exhibit none of these three properties. A discussion will be presented of the reasons for this "non-simple" behavior of ρexpt(T) for potassium.

Low-temperature measurements of electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity, and thermoelectric power on silver alloys containing 0.005, 0.067, 0.11, and 0.31 at.% of manganese are reported. The same specimens were used for the measurement of all properties over the temperature range from 2 to 25 °K. The well-known minimum and maximum are observed in the electrical resistivity of the three more concentrated alloys and the minimum is visible in the most dilute alloy near the lowest temperatures of measurement. Associated effects are observed in the other properties and their possible relationship to theoretical electron scattering mechanisms, particularly that of Kondo, is discussed.

This paper examines the challenges which are encountered when using electrical resistivity measurements for characterization of microstructures in aluminum alloys. Experimental examples are provided of electrical resistivity studies conducted on two aluminum alloys, a heattreatable alloy (AA6111) and a non-heat-treatable alloy (AA5754), which demonstrate how the technique can be used to characterize changes in the microstructure. Results on AA6111 show that the dependence of the measurement on solute atoms and fine scale precipitates makes deconvolution of the resistivity signal non-trivial and therefore, utilization of supplementary technique(s) in conjunction with electrical resistivity measurements is essential. In the next example, room temperature electrical resistivity measurements as a function of cold work for AA5754 illustrate a larger resistivity contribution from dislocations in this alloy as compared to that reported for pure aluminum. The interaction of solutes and dislocations is cited as the possible source for the increased dislocation contribution.

The electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity, and thermoelectric power of Rb have been measured between 40 and 300 K. Two of the samples were bare, to avoid thermal contraction difficulties; the softness of these samples necessitated further, calibration, measurements on a third sample in glass, just below the freezing point. The electrical resistivity values agree well with published values of Dugdale and Phillips. The Lorenz function, not previously examined in detail above 25 K, shows strong evidence of electron–electron scattering, of a strength intermediate to that calculated by Kukkonen for Thomas–Fermi screening, and for Geldart–Taylor screening. Such scattering appears to have affected the thermoelectric power as well.
