Hole carrier in MgB₂ characterized by Hall Measurements
read the original abstract
The longitudinal resistivity rho_{xx} and Hall coefficient R_H were measured for MgB2 sintered under high pressure. We found that R_H is positive like cuprate high-Tc superconductors, and decreases as the temperature increases for 40 K < T < 300 K. The cotangent of the Hall angle was found to follow a+bT^2 behavior from Tc to 300 K. At T = 100 K, R_H = 4.1 x 10^{-11} m^3/C from which hole carrier density was determined to be 1.5 x 10^{23}/cm^3. This carrier density is 2 - 3 orders of magnitude larger than that of Nb3Sn superconductor and that of optimally doped YBa_2Cu_3O_y.
