Abstract
The electronic transport properties of electrical resistivity (ρ), thermoelectric power (Q) and thermal conductivity (σ) of some transition liquid metals (Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Zr, Pd, Ag, Cd, Pt, Au and Hg) are evaluated using Ziman's formula, along with our newly constructed parameter-free model potential. To describe the structural information, the structure factor S(q) from the Percus–Yevick Hard Sphere (PYHS) reference system is used. The various local-field correction functions, namely Hartree (H), Vashishta–Singwi (VS), Hubbard–Shamm (HS), Sarkar et al. (SS), Ichimaru–Utsumi (IU), Taylor (T) and Farid et al. (F), have been incorporated to see the influence of exchange and correlation effects on electronic transport properties. The proper choice of the model potential, along with the local field correction function and the oxidation state (valency Z), plays a vital role in the study of the electronic transport properties of some transition liquid metals.
