A Set of the Important Kinetic Properties of Crystals and Their Dependence on the Charge Carriers’ Scattering Mechanisms.

<p>In non-equilibrium thermodynamics, there are known the generalized equations of electrical and heat conduction. They describe the response of conducting medium to the action of drift fields in the medium as well as a magnetic field. The phenomenological tensors and coefficients in these equations describe all set of the important kinetic properties of conducting crystals. Therefore, to provide an explanation for the nature of the crystal properties, the nature of a set of the kinetic tensors and coefficients must be explained. In this paper, under general observation conditions, the whole set of these quantities that are important for isotropic crystals, is calculated with the use of statistical physics methods.</p>
