Abstract
The authors have measured the thermoelectric powers of a series of amorphous transition metal alloys and find, contrary to expectation, that they are not simply proportional to temperature below about 200K. They argue that the results can be best understood as being due to electron-phonon enhancement effects and show that there is agreement between the experimentally deduced electron-phonon enhancement factors and those calculated from superconductivity data.Keywords
