Ames National Laboratory is a government-owned, contractor-operated national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), operated by and located on the campus of Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa.
For more than 70 years, the Ames National Laboratory has successfully partnered with Iowa State University, and is unique among the 17 DOE laboratories in that it is physically located on the campus of a major research university. Many of the scientists and administrators at the Laboratory also hold faculty positions at the University and the Laboratory has access to both undergraduate and graduate student talent.

Abstract
NdBiPt is a member of a new class of ternary intermetallic semiconductors and semimetals. These materials are covalently bonded crystals with band gaps expected to be in the range of 0–1 eV. Longitudinal resistivity, Hall resistivity, and thermoelectric power measurements reveal that in NdBiPt the ‘‘gap’’ is an overlap that gives rise to a semimetallic behavior exhibiting high hole and electron mobilities.
