Abstract

We have measured the electrical resistivity, ϱ, of Cr from room temperature to above its melting point. The resistivity, ϱL, of liquid Cr is found to be 150 ± 5 μ Ω-cm and (ϱL - ϱS)/ ϱS = 0.27. We also report a melting temperature for Cr of 1812 ± 10°C. We compare ϱL with values calculated on various theoretical models, and examine the implications of ϱS and ϱL for the density of states for solid and liquid Cr.
