Abstract
The in-plane electrical transport and optical properties of the incommensurate intergrowth compounds (SbS)1.15(TiS2)n with n = 1, 2 have been investigated by means of measurements of the electrical resistivity, Hall coefficient and thermopower in the temperature range from 4.2 to 350 K, and by optical spectroscopy in the frequency range 1000-20000 cm-1 at room temperature. Both the Hall effect and the thermopower indicate transport by electrons. The Hall coefficients show electron donation of about 0.57 and 0.34 of an electron per Ti atom for (SbS)1.15(TiS2)n with n = 1 and 2, respectively. The in-plane resistivity ρab(T) exhibits a non-linear dependence on temperature, which can be described with the formula ρab(T) = ρ0 + Aee(T/TF)2 In(TF/T) as for a two-dimensional Fermi liquid. Fits according to the Drude model to the room temperature optical reflectivity show that the relaxation rate has a quadratic variation with frequency 1/τ(ω) ∼ ω2, also indicating Fermi-liquid behaviour with interelectronic collisions of quasiparticles. Only a small anisotropy in the ab-plane is observed in the optical spectra for the electrical field polarized parallel and perpendicular to the incommensurate direction.
