Abstract
The pressure-induced shift of impurity levels under hydrostatic pressure at T = 300 K (−9.6 meV/MPa) has been obtained from measurements of the temperature dependences of the electrical resistance of SmS single crystals at different pressures. The obtained value confirms the validity of the existing model of the semiconductor-metal phase transition in samarium monosulfide.
