Electrical Transport Properties of CuxSn_(1-x) Metallic Glasses

摘要

In the present paper, we report the electrical resistivity (p), the thermoelectric power (TEP) and thermal conductivity (σ) of CuxSn_(1-)x metallic glasses computed from Faber-Ziman formulation with Percus-Yevic (PY) hard sphere structure factors of Ashcroft and Langreth. Our well-recognized model potential is used to represent ionic interaction for the first time with seven local field correction functions due to Hartree (H), Hubbard-Sham (HS), Vashishta-Singwi (VS), Taylor (T), Ichimaru-Utsumi (IU), Farid etal. (F) and Sarkar etal. (S) in the present computation and found suitable for such study. The percentile influence of various local field corrections with respect to Hartree (H) is found in the range of 17.35%-71.55%. It is concluded that, the comparison of present and experimental findings of electrical resistivity (p) is highly promising.
