Abstract:Measurements have been made of the resistivity ρ and of the thermoelectric power Q (vs Pt) of samples of AuCu in various nonequilibrium states. One set of samples was disordered by quenching from 750°C; and annealing curves were obtained at 100°, 149°, 198°, and 258°C. A second set was first ordered and then cold worked to essentially complete disorder, and annealing curves taken at 149°C and 258°C. Of the former set, the Q—ρ curves for 100° and 149°C showed a maximum at ρ≈11.5μ ohm cm while none was observed … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
