The effective thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity was measured for chalcogenide glass samples of the formulation Ge30-xSe70Sbx (x = 10, 15, 20, 25). It was found that both the effective thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were independent of temperature up to 160ยบ C. After this point, both properties were found to increase with increasing temperature until they reached a maximum value at a point near the glass transition temperature of the glass. After reaching ...
