Thermal diffusivity of lead iodide

Abstract: The thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity have been determined for lead iodide PbI2, at room temperature, using the photoacoustic spectroscopy. The result shows a thermal diffusivity αs=(25.0±0.4)×10−3 cm2/s, a value very close to other semiconductors of current technological importance. The electrical conductivity is also measured and discussed.

“…Materials of low density are in most cases characterized by large specific heats. Whittington et al [16] acknowledges that even the thermal evolution of planetary crust and lithosphere is largely governed by thermophysical properties, namely; thermal conductivity, diffusively, density and specific heat capacity [17]. This is in support of the report of [18], [19], [20], [21] add thermal linear expansion to the parameters earlier named as thermophysical properties.…”

“…47 The thermal diffusivities have values one order of magnitude higher than some semiconductors and porous silicon. [53][54][55] The overall behavior of the thermal parameters seems to reflect the change in the sample structure. It is well known that an amorphous phase is characterized by a slight thermal diffusivity.…”

“…Recently, its band-gap energy and thermal properties were determined by photoacoustic spectroscopy. 4,5 A single crystal of PbI 2 was grown by the Bridgman method with the c-axis oriented perpendicular to the growth axis. 4 The purpose of this work is to obtain the electronic structure of PbI 2 , its dielectric functions ⑀ 1 and ⑀ 2 by ellipsometry and theoretically by full-potential linear muffin-tinorbital ͑FPLMTO͒ method, 6 and the temperature dependence of the measured band-gap energy by optical absorption.…”
