Abstract
The resistivity ρ and the thermoelectric power S have been measured for the system Pb-Sb from the liquidus to 800°C, and S for the system Ge-Sb up to 950°C. The whole phase diagram has been explored. For the two systems ρ is a smooth function of concentration and the overall behaviour of S is the same, with very small values for Ge-Sb. The dρ/dT is always positive for Pb-Sb, and no anomalous behaviour is observed near the eutectic composition as for Ge-Sb. The results are interpreted in terms of the empty core model potential and hard-sphere interference functions, with different dielectric screening functions.
