Abstract

A simple procedure for determining components of the specific electrical conductivity tensor of anisotropic semiconductor films is proposed. Expressions obtained for calculating the specific conductivities are based on the solutions to the corresponding boundary electromagnetic problems; hence, they do not depend on the type of substance and can be applied for studying films of various anisotropic semiconductor materials. The presented procedure is checked by experiments.
