Description

The electrical size effect of polycrystalline vanadium films evaporated onto molybdenum glass substrates at a temperature of 293 K was examined in vacuum at 10-10 Torr in situ. It has been shown that grain-boundary scattering and additional defects (absorbed foreign atoms) scattering are considerable and they cannot be neglected. On the basis of the electrical size effect the electron mean free path for the temperature range 293 to 575 K has been found to vary from 12.3 x 10-10 to 7.7 x 10-10 m. (author)
