Abstract:
In this work, we use the Boltzmann Transport Equations (BTE) and energy dispersion
relation function to calculate the electronic thermal conductivity and heat capacity

C in both the normal and superconducting states. We show that, at low
temperature the electrical and thermal conductivity obey a Wiedemann - Franz law
with
the theoretical value for its validity.
Furthermore, the expression for electronic thermal conductivity at superconducting
and normal states have been determined and plotted as a function of temperature
(T). The graphs show the linear dependency of electronic thermal conductivity of
C with temperature (T) in the normal state and have a. kink in the super
conducting state.
