DOI 10.1134/s1063782619070030
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract Theoretical calculations of the electron structure and Seebeck coefficient in Fe2Ti1 –xVxSn alloys for the cases of a fully ordered L21 and partially disordered B2 Heusler crystal structure are presented. It is shown that the band-gap width increases with the substitution of Ti by V. Comparison with the available theoretical and experimental data indicates that taking into account randomness in the atomic distribution makes it possible to acquire values of the Seebeck coefficient closer to the experimental results.
