A study of electron and thermal transport in layered titanium disulphide single crystals.

We present a detailed study of thermal and electrical transport behavior of single crystal titanium disulphide flakes, which belong to the two dimensional, transition metal dichalcogenide class of materials. In-plane Seebeck effect measurements revealed a typical metal-like linear temperature dependence in the range of 85-285 K. Electrical transport measurements with in-plane current geometry exhibited a nearly T dependence of resistivity in the range of 42-300 K.
