Abstract

In the present paper, we have investigated the effect of temperature on electrical parameters of SmS. We have developed a model to calculate electrical parameters such as activation energy, carrier concentration, Hall constant, carrier mobility, electrical conductivity and resistivity under the effect of temperature and these parameters are used to discuss transport mechanism in SmS. Based on this analysis, we have investigated the valence transition in SmS under the effect of temperature.
