摘要：

A high temperature Seebeck coefficient and electrical resistivity measurement apparatus has been designed and built for measuring advanced thermoelectric materials. The apparatus covers the range of temperatures from 300 to 1300 K. Different sources of errors involved in the two measurements are discussed. The accuracy of the electrical resistivity measurement is estimated to be better than +/-1% by measuring standard graphite sample from NIST. (C) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
