摘要
We report measurements of the thermoelectric power (TEP) for a series of Pb1-xTlxTe crystals with x=0.0 to 1.3%. Although the TEP is very large for x=0.0, using a single-band analysis based on older work for dilute magnetic alloys we do find evidence for a Kondo contribution of 11-18 mu V/K. This analysis suggests that T-K is similar or equal to 50-70 K, a factor 10 higher than previously thought.
