Abstract

The authors study the transport coefficients of a zinc single crystal when a magnetic field is applied in a direction close to the c axis. For fields <or approximately=1.5 T they report a complete set of experiments and theoretical coefficients for a single crystal in the usual rectangular geometry with the emphasis being on the thermal and thermoelectric effects. The agreement between experimental and theory is usually good, though the model calculations are unable to produce sufficient harmonic content in the diagonal coefficients. The experimental data on the electrical resistivities have also been extended to high magnetic fields when the field is both parallel and close to the c axis. Generally speaking, these results are not understood and indicate that we are still ignorant of some of the basic physics appropriate to this situation.
