Abstract

FeGa2S4 type FeIn2Se4 compound was prepared by high temperature vacuum melting solid state reaction technique. The crystal structure of the prepared compound was studied using power X-ray diffraction analysis and Pawley profile fitting analysis was carried by TOPAS V4.1 computer program. The electrical resistivity of the FeIn2Se4 compound was measured using high precision source measurement unit in the temperature range of 323 to 683 K at inert atmosphere. Seebeck coefficient measurement was examined in the home made thermopower measurement system. The power factor (S2/ρ) was calculated and it is found that the compound exhibit highest power factor value of 3.5 μW/cmK2 at 643 K.
