Examination of the specific features of the electron density of states of weakly nonstoichiometric Fe–V–Al alloys through the analysis of low-temperature heat capacity

详细

The results of a comparative study of low-temperature heat capacity and resistivity of weakly nonstoichiometric Fe–V–Al alloys with their composition varied (in iron, vanadium, and aluminum atoms individually) with respect to the stoichiometric Fe₂Val alloy are reported. The electron density of states near the Fermi energy is estimated for the studied alloys. The data confirming the presence of a narrow pseudogap at the Fermi level in alloys enriched with vanadium and the lack of such a pseudogap in alloys enriched with iron or aluminum are obtained.
