Abstract
Values of the electrical resistivity, temperature coefficient of resistivity, thermopower, and superconducting transition temperature for a series of metallic glasses prepared both as ‘‘splat-cooled’’ foils and ‘‘melt-spun’’ ribbons are reported. Differences between the two types of samples are discussed. We argue that the dominant contribution to the conductivity and thermopower is from La d states.
