Abstract

The electrical resistivity increases rapidly with the addition of Si to liquid Au, and the composition dependence of the electrical resistivity of liquid Au 1− c Si c alloys exhibits a maximum at the composition c=0.5. The composition dependence of the thermoelectric power of liquid Au 1− c Si c alloys shows a rapid change from a positive value on the Au side to a negative value in the composition range c ≧ 0.15 and reaches a minimum of −4 μV/K at the composition c=0.5. The electrical resistivity and the thermoelectric power of liquid Au–Si alloys have been estimated by the Faber–Ziman theory.
