Abstract

For a fixed temperature of 300 K on a specimen of CdSnAs2〈Cu〉 acted upon by a uniform pressure of up to 1.5 GPa, the dependence of the thermo-electromotive force on the “narrow” band population is studied for the first time. In agreement with theory, the sign of the thermo-electromotive force is observed to change sign in the studied crystals. The limits of the validity of the “narrow” band approximation are refined.
