Abstract
The thermoelectric power of the alloy Cu3Au has been measured in the range of temperature 180°K < T < 1000°K both for samples at equilibrium and for samples disordered by quenching. The thermoelectric power depends remarkably upon the degree of order: the disordered samples present a behaviour quite similar to that of Cu and Au, whilst the samples at equilibrium show a drastic change near the critical temperature Tc and a different behaviour as a function of temperature for T < Tc . A comparison is made with the theoretical curves previously obtained and the results are discussed in connection with the modifications of the Brillouin zones consequent to the order–disorder transition.Keywords
