Electrical resistivity measurements of Pd₄₀Cu ₃₀Ni₁₀P₂₀ alloy in supercooled liquid and liquid state

The electrical resistivity values of Pd₄₀Cu₃₀Ni ₁₀P₂₀ alloy in the supercooled liquid and liquid states have been measured by the direct current four probe technique and the experimental uncertainty of electrical resistivity was found to be ±2.2%. The electrical resistivity values of Pd₄₀Cu₃₀Ni ₁₀P₂₀ alloy show negative temperature dependence in the supercooled liquid and liquid states. It was also suggested from analysis with the Wiedemann-Franz law that principal mechanism for thermal conduction of Pd₄₀Cu₃₀Ni₁₀P₂₀ alloy is likely to be controlled by electron in the supercooled liquid and liquid states.
