Electronic Transport in Intermediate Valence Compounds

Abstract

To describe transport properties of intermediate valence compounds, we study the periodic Anderson model with off-site hybridization. A particle density operator which is consistent with the model assumptions is derived, and the current operator is determined via the continuity equation. The model is treated within the alloy analog approximation, using the CPA to solve the alloy problem. The static conductivity and other transport quantities are then calculated within the CPA theory of electronic transport.
