"Electronic Structure of Thallium Filled Skutterudites Studied by X-ray" by Gary J. Long, Bernard M. Mahieu et al.
 

Abstract

The electronic structure of the three sites in the thallium filled skutterudites was studied. Two series of thallium filled skutterudites were formed because thallium has a formal valence of +1 and iron or tin must replace some of the cobalt or antimony respectively, to maintain charge neutrality. Large atomic mean-square displacements were observed for the thallium filling atoms and it helps to produce the large thermal resistivity observed for these skutterudites.
