Abstract
Semiconducting phases in the system () exhibit three-dimensional variable-range hopping conduction over a wide temperature () range (100-900 K). Thermopower () measurements support this observation. increases with for indicative of transport at the chemical potential . The decrease in with for is indicative of gap at . A schematic band picture is used to explain the observed behaviors.
