Abstract
The electrical properties of thin germanium monoxide films deposited in high vacuum were studied. The literature reveals few practical applications of this material [1–3], but it is found in these experiments that by depositing GeO films in a vacuum ∼10-6−10-7 torr one can produce coatings having satisfactory dielectric properties. These films are also of interest for they furnish the opportunity to study the motion of charge carriers in a material having a clearly defined defective structure.
