A theoretical expression for the temperature coefficientβRHof the Hall coefficientRHFof metallic films is deduced from the Fuchs–Sondheimer conduction model. The general expression takes into account the deviation introduced by the geometrical limitation of the mean free path. This is negligible for relatively thick films (k≥ 1 forp= 0) and agrees with experiments previously reported by other authors.

Electrons and phonons are the carriers of heat in the a-b plane of the high-Tc superconductor YBa2Cu3O7. In the absence of boundary scattering, the a-b plane thermal conductivity and the mean free path of each carrier type are calculated as functions of temperature using kinetic theory, the two-fluid model of the superconducting state, and experimental data for the thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity of a single crystal. The reduction by boundary scattering of the effective a-b plane thermal conductivity along an epitaxial YBa2Cu3O7 film is predicted as a function of temperature and film thickness. The size effect on the phonon conductivity dominates over the size effect on the electron conductivity. The predicted electron mean free path is limited by scattering on defects and is in very good agreement with experimental data from infrared spectroscopy.
