Abstract

The peculiarities of charge carrier transfer mechanism in ZnO films doped by donor or acceptor impurity and metal−dielectric electronic phase transition were investigated. The control parameter of this transition is concentration of interstitial Zn atoms. The films with high concentration of interstitial Zn atoms have high conductivity of metallic type. Air annealing leads to change of conductivity temperature dependence from metallic type to dielectric one.
