    Charge carrier density, mobility, and Seebeck coefficient of melt-grown bulk ZnGa2O4 single crystals
    (New York, NY : American Inst. of Physics, 2020) Boy, Johannes; Handwerg, Martin; Mitdank, Rüdiger; Galazka, Zbigniew; Fischer, Saskia F.
    The temperature dependence of the charge carrier density, mobility, and Seebeck coefficient of melt-grown, bulk ZnGa2O4 single crystals was measured between 10 K and 310 K. The electrical conductivity at room temperature is about σ = 286 S/cm due to a high electron concentration of n = 3.26 × 1019 cm−3 caused by unintentional doping. The mobility at room temperature is μ = 55 cm2/V s, whereas the scattering on ionized impurities limits the mobility to μ = 62 cm2/Vs for temperatures lower than 180 K. The Seebeck coefficient relative to aluminum at room temperature is SZnGa2O4−Al = (−125 ± 2) μV/K and shows a temperature dependence as expected for degenerate semiconductors. At low temperatures, around 60 K, we observed the maximum Seebeck coefficient due to the phonon drag effect. © 2020 Author(s).

    Magnetic-field- and temperature-dependent fermi surface of CeBiPt
    (Milton Park : Taylor & Francis, 2006) Wosnitza, J.; Goll, G.; Bianchi, A.D.; Bergk, B.; Kozlova, N.; Opahle, I.; Elgazzar, S.; Richter, Manuel; Stockert, O.; Löhneysen, H.V.; Yoshino, T.; Takabatake, T.
    The half-Heusler compounds CeBiPt and LaBiPt are semimetals with very low charge-carrier concentrations as evidenced by Shubnikov–de Haas (SdH) and Hall-effect measurements. Neutron-scattering results reveal a simple antiferromagnetic structure in CeBiPt below TN = 1.15 K. The band structure of CeBiPt sensitively depends on temperature, magnetic field and stoichiometry. Above a certain, sample-dependent, threshold field (B>25 T), the SdH signal disappears and the Hall coefficient reduces significantly. These effects are absent in the non-4f compound LaBiPt. Electronic-band-structure calculations can well explain the observed behaviour by a 4f-polarization-induced Fermi-surface modification.
