Summary

THE VARIATION OF ELECTRIC RESISTANCE AND THE MAGNETORESISTANCE COEFFICIENT OF BISMUTH AND BISMUTH-ANTIMONY FILMS (0.17 BISMUTH AND 0.83 ANTIMONY) ARE STUDIED AT A 4 TO 6 MICROMETER INCREASE OF THICKNESS L IN THE TEMPERATURE RANGE 4.2 TO 300 K. THE COMPARISON OF THE RESISTANCE AND MAGNETORESISTANCE OF THESE FILMS IN THE RANGE OF LARGE THICKNESSES REVEALED THAT FOR L HIGHER THAN 7 MICROMETERS THE CHARGE CARRIER CONCENTRATION DECREASES SUGGESTING A SEMIMETAL-SEMICONDUCTOR TRANSITION TO OCCUR WITH AN INCREASE IN THE LAYER THICKNESS.
