ON THE STRUCTURAL, THERMAL, ELECTRICAL, AND MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF AuSn
Keyword(s):
The Au1−xSn phase has a homogeneity range within the limits 50.0 and 50.5 at.% Sn. The lattice constants and observed densities vary between the limits:[Formula: see text]The thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, and absolute thermoelectric power of oriented single crystals of Au1−xSn have been measured between 2.5° K and room temperature. The results exhibit pronounced anisotropies. Measurements of the magnetic susceptibility between liquid air temperature and 650–750° K are also reported for three different Au1−xSn alloys.The various results are discussed, and some speculations are presented regarding the number of conduction electrons in AuSn.
