Abstract
Transport properties of FeTe parent compound has been investigated by measurements of electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and Seebeck coefficient. The sample was synthesized through a standard solid state reaction route via vacuum encapsulation and characterized by x-ray diffraction, which indicated a tetragonal phase with space group P4/nmm. The parent FeTe compound does not exhibit superconductivity but shows an anomaly in the resistivity measurement at around 67 K, which corresponds to a structural phase transition along with in the vicinity of a magnetic phase transition. In the low temperature regime, Seebeck coefficient, S(T), exhibited an anomalous dip feature and negative throughout the temperature range, indicating electron-like charge carrier conduction mechanism.
