Özet

Experimental results of thermoelectric power, S(T), and thermal conductivity, kappa(T), in (MgB2)(2-x)Cr-x, were studied. The both electronic and lattice contributions Of K(T) of the samples were investigated between 40 and 300 K. The total K(T) was found in the range of 80-260 mW/cm K and the S(T) measurements showed a variation between 5.9 and 14.3 muV/K at 300 K depending on the Cr substitution. The all S(T) data obtained were found to be positive. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
