Electrical/thermal transport and electronic structure of the binary cobalt pnictides CoPn2 (Pn = As and Sb)

We demonstrate the electrical and thermal transport properties of polycrystalline CoPn2 (Pn = As and Sb) between 300 and 900 K. CoAs2 shows semiconducting electrical transport up to 900 K, while CoSb2 exhibits degenerate conduction. Sign inversion of the Seebeck coefficient is observed at ∼310 and ∼...
