Abstract: | By doping bismuth with tellurium to increase the charge carrier density and thus speed up the slow nuclear spin-lattice relaxation the nuclear quadrupole heat capacity becomes measurable in contrast to pure bismuth. The quadrupole heat capacity is greatly influenced by doping, increasing by 64% over the pure bismuth value on the addition of 0.23 at. % of tellurium. This results from a local asymmetric distortion of the valence electron states of the bismuth ions around the impurity site. |
