THERMOELECTRIC MATERIALS.

Abstract

Measurements of the Seebeck coefficient and resistivity of the cuprous sulfide-lead sulfide system in the liquid state have been made for compositions containing 75, 70, 65, 60, and 25 mole percent cuprous sulfide. Preliminary results for this system indicate that Seebeck coefficient progresses smoothly from p-type at high cuprous sulfide compositions to n-type at high lead sulfide compositions passing through zero near the eutectic composition at 61 mole percent cuprous sulfide. Similar behavior, although not quite as distinct, is exhibited by the resistivity at constant temperature. (Author)
