Thermoelectric power in amorphous Fe84B16with small amounts of 3d additives

The influence of small amounts of 3d transition metal additives on the thermoelectric power in amorphous Fe84B16 alloy has been investigated. The contribution of elements on different sides of Fe in the Periodic Table is completely different. The results are discussed in terms of the Mott s-d scattering model and Herzer's theory.
