Controlled amounts of GaP and P were added to a Si0.8Ge0.2 matrix by a powder‐metallurgical technique in order to evaluate the optimum composition for thermoelectric applications. Bulk determination of the gallium and phosphorus content in fully dense, hot pressed compacts was performed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. The transport properties of the compacts were characterized by Hall effect measurements at room temperature and by measurements of electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal diffusivity to 1000 °C. Considerable variation in the electrical transport properties were found to accompany changes in the Ga/P ratio, in the total amount of dopant, and changes in other preparation conditions. Alloys with gallium phosphide additions exhibit carrier concentrations higher than those obtained in alloys doped only with phosphorus. Alloys with a nominal phosphorus content greater than 2.0 at. % were found to be overdoped and those containing less than 0.6 at. % pho...
