The main purpose of this work is to present a highly sensitive method for measuring
simultaneously thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power in a 4.2–300 K temperature …

The influence of a magnetic field on the thermal conductivity of high-T c superconductors is
described. A semi-phenomenological model which takes into account the influence of the …

The influence of a magnetic field on the electronic contribution to the thermal conductivity of
a d-wave superconductor is described. We use the kinetic expression for in terms of a …

Precise magnetotransport studies of heat and charge carriers in polycrystalline MgB 2 show
that magnetic fields up to 8 T remarkably influence electrical resistivity, thermoelectric power …

Atomic substitution in YBCO was studied in considerable detail in a quest to increase Tc
even further and to better understand the fundamental behaviour of cuprates both in the …

The thermal conductivity κ, and thermoelectric power S, curves as a function of temperature
and applied magnetic fields have been presented for the two principal orientations of a …

Simultaneous thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power measurements are reported for
standard polycrystalline YBa2Cu3O7− δ (Y123) samples with oxygen contents covering the …

Data on the electronic contribution to the thermal conductivity of the untwinned YBaCuO
single crystal are examined. Rather than focussing on the relaxation time, we explicitly take …

Two types of electron scatterers, free (unpinned) vortices and pinned (via extended defects)
vortices, are considered and their contribution to the electronic thermal magnetoconductivity …

The transport current density, flowing radially from the center of a superconducting disk to its
perimeter, in a so-called Corbino geometry, results in a double action on the vortex motion …
