Abstract

We have measured the temperature dependence of the thermopower and resistivity of amorphous In-Sb for several compositions near the metal-insulator transition. The thermopower, S, is observed to correlate with the resistivity, ρ, such that ‖S‖∝ρ0.26 and a deviation of the low-temperature thermopower parameter from the expected behavior for an amorphous metal is in qualitative agreement with a prediction for the effect of electron-electron interactions on the thermopower.
