Hall effect and electronic structure of glassy Zr 3d alloys

Abstract
Accurate Hall coefficients of glassy Zr1-xFex, Zr1-xCox, Zr1-xNix and Zr1-xCux alloys are reported. In Zr-rich alloys the Hall coefficient is positive and changes sign (except for ZrFe alloys) at progressively higher concentrations (x) in going from ZrCo to ZrCu alloys. A correlation is found between the cross-over concentration and the concentration at which the nature of the states at the Fermi level changes from being predominantly of Zr d character to being predominantly of solute d character.
