We calculated electronic structures of Ba 8 Al 16 Ge 30 in some Al-Ge framework configurations without nearest-neighbor Al-Al bonds by using a first-principles method. The calculated band structures are similar in outline but different in detail. We also calculated thermoelectric properties by using the electronic structures to analyze the experimental results on a sintered Ba 8 Al 16 Ge 30 sample. The calculated properties nearly agree with the experimental results; however, the calculated temperature dependences of electrical conductivity are slightly different from one another, because of differences in electronic structure. In this paper, we discuss the temperature dependence from the viewpoints of nonparabolic band effects.
