Abstract

AbstractThe electrical conductivity, the magnetic susceptibility, and the thermoelectric power of the liquid TI‐AgTe system have been obtained as functions of temperature and composition. The thermodynamic properties of the system have also been determined by means of the EMF method. The system shows a sharp minimum in electrical conductivity and a marked maximum in diamagnetic susceptibility at the stoichiometric composition of AgTlTe, where the change in sign of thermoelectric power also appears. These electronic properties are discussed in the light of current transport theories employed in the amorphous and liquid semiconductors. Further, the presence of the local order around the stoichiometric composition in the system is discussed by the support of the results of thermodynamic properties.
