摘要：
The electrical transport properties of SiO2 films (greater than or equal to 3 mu m in thickness) containing Ge nanocrystals have been studied. We found that the films exhibit T-1/2 dependence of ln(sigma) under relatively low electric fields independent of the volume fraction of Ge in the films, where T and sigma are the temperature and the conductivity, respectively. The observed electrical properties could be well explained by the theory developed by Simanek [Solid State Commun. 40, 1021 (1981)] which considers the tunneling of thermally activated carriers between neighboring nanocrystals.
