Electron transport in La/sub 100-//sub x/Al/sub x/ metallic glasses

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. B: Condens. Matter; (United States)
Values of the electrical resistivity, temperature coefficient of resistivity, thermopower, and superconducting transition temperature for a series of La/sub 100-//sub x/Al/sub x/ metallic glasses prepared both as ''splat-cooled'' foils and ''melt-spun'' ribbons are reported. Differences between the two types of samples are discussed. We argue that the dominant contribution to the conductivity and thermopower is from La d states.
