What is Semiconductor to metal transition for Ni doped CdO thin films about?

In the present investigation resistivity Vs temperature measurements have been performed for solgel prepared pure and Ni doped CdO (NDO) thin films. The semiconducting behavior i.e. negative temperature coefficient of resistivity (TCR) of pure CdO thin film through-out the whole temperature range can be attributed mainly due to concentration dependent thermally activation mechanism of the carriers. The semiconductor to metal transition (SMT) for NDO thin films has been elucidated via combined effect of involved grain boundaries, ionic impurities, phonon scattering and carrier activation.
