Conductivity—size dependences of chromium films with thickness d < 50 nm fabricated under ultrahigh vacuum conditions on both the surface of glass and the surface of glass predeposited with germanium underlayers are quantitatively described by quasi-classical and quantum size effects’ theories. The experimental data are agreed with theoretical calculations taking into account the structure and surface-morphology peculiarities of thin metal films. The charge transport parameters of experimental samples are calculated.
Key words: metal thin films, surface and grain boundary scatterings, semiconductor sublayers of subatomic thickness.
