Abstract

The twelve galvanomagnetic coefficients of tellurium crystals grown by the Czochralski method were measured over the temperature range 77°-300°K. The results of these measurements plus previous measurements at 4.2°K and a determination of the effect of pressure on one of the Hall coefficients are combined with symmetry characteristics to postulate an energy band structure. This structure differs from those previously proposed on the basis of tight-binding methods or by simple applications of group theory.
