Electronic states of Fe, Co and Ni impurities in liquid aluminium

Abstract

The results of an experimental study of the residual resistivity and thermopower of Fe, Co and Ni dilute in liquid Al are presented. Combined with the magnetic susceptibility, the authors, results are found to be consistent with the predictions of the Friedel-Anderson model and are used to determine the parameters of the virtual bound state as well as the exchange-correlation energy between two electrons localized on the site of the impurity.
