Some properties of semiconducting IrSb3

Polycrystalline p-type samples of IrSb3 and Ir0.5Rh0.5Sb3 have been made by hot isostatic pressing of powders. A number of properties such as thermal expansion coefficient, sound velocity, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and carrier concentration have been measure...

Description
Summary:Polycrystalline p-type samples of IrSb3 and Ir0.5Rh0.5Sb3 have been made by hot isostatic pressing of powders. A number of properties such as thermal expansion coefficient, sound velocity, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and carrier concentration have been measured. These compounds show promise as thermoelectric materials.
