Abstract
We investigated the IV and CV properties of an [(FeTiO3)0.67 (Fe2O3)0.33] epitaxial thin film. The four point probe (4pp) measurements revealed that the material has a linear IV relation and has a resistivity of approximately 0.56 ω cm. In contrast, the two point (2pp) measurements are highly non-linear suggesting the existence of Schottky barriers. The CV data suggest that the material under the contacts is depleted. From the corrected CV data, the carrier concentration is found to be of the order of 1023/cm3.
