The purpose of this note is to point out that the difference in the ideal -electronic thermal conductivity between an alloy and a pure metal can be estimated from the corresponding difference in the ideal electrical resistivity, using the Wiedemann-Franz law. This allows the separation of the thermal conductivity into an electronic and a lattice component to be made with greater confidence, particularly at liquid oxygen temperatures.

AbstractWe have measured the doping concentration dependence of the room temperature thermal conductivity (κ) of two series of n-GaN/sapphire (0001) fabricated by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). In both sets n decreased linearly with log n, the variation being about a factor two decrease in κ for every decade increase in n. κ ≈ 1.95 W/cm-K was obtained for one of the most lightly doped samples (n = 6.9×1016 cm−3), higher than the previously reported κ ≈ 1.7-1.8 W/cm-K on lateral epitaxial overgrown material [V.A. Asnin et al, Appl. Phys. Lett. 75, 1240 (1999)] and κ κ 1.3 W/cm-K on a thick HVPE sample [E.K. Sichel and J.I. Pankove, J. Phys. Chem. Solids 38, 330 (1977)]. The decrease in the lattice component of κ due to increased phonon scattering from both the impurities and free electrons outweighs the increase in the electronic contribution to κ.

Makinson's (1938) theory of the lattice component of the thermal conductivity of metals and alloys, when limited at low temperatures by interaction with the conduction electrons, is re-examined, and the magnitude of the lattice conductivity is related to the electronic thermal conductivity at low temperatures, thus avoiding uncertainties in the theory at high temperatures. The result depends on whether transverse lattice waves can interact with the electrons.
