Electronic Conduction of Magnetite (Fe3O4) and its Transition Point at Low Temperatures
Abstract
WE have measured the electronic conductivity, down to liquid nitrogen temperature, of a number of iron oxides of the homogeneous `Fe3O4' phase, especially as a function of the exact stoichiometrie composition of the material. This seemed of theoretical interest for several reasons:
