Electronic transport properties of hot-pressed B/sub 6/Si

  • 1. Jet Propulsion Lab., Pasadena, CA (USA)

Description

Measurements of the electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient and Hall mobility from --300 K to --1300 K have been carried out on multiphase hotpressed samples of the nominal composition B/sub 6/Si. In all samples the conductivity and the p-type Seebeck coefficient both increase smoothly with increasing temperature. By themselves, these facts suggest small-polaronic hopping between inequivalent sites. The measured Hall mobilities are always low, but vary in sign. A possible explanation is offered for this anomalous behavior
