Quantum oscillations of the thermoelectric power and of the Nernst effect on magnetic-breakdown trajectories in ruthenium
Cherepanov A.N., Startsev V.E., Volkenshtein N.V.
The thermoelectric power and the Nernst effect of the purest known ruthenium single crystals with p273 к/р4.2 к as high as 3000 were measured at 4.2 К and in magnetic fields up to 90 kOe under magnetic-breakdown conditions. Giant oscillations of the thermoelectric power and of the Nernst effect, due to formaion of a narrow layer of open magnetic-breakdown orbits, are observed.
