The question of intrinsic origin of the metal-insulator transition in i-AlPdRe quasicrystal
The icosahedral (i-) AlPdRe is the most resistive quasicrystalline alloy discovered so far. Resistivities ($\rho$) of $1\Omega cm$ at 4K and correlated resistance ratios ($RRR = \rho_{4K}/\rho_{300K}$) of more than 200 are observed in polycrystalline samples. These values are two orders of magnitude larger than for the...

What Causes High Resistivity in CdTe
CdTe can be made semi-insulating by shallow donor doping. This is routinely done to obtain high resistivity in CdTe-based radiation detectors. However, it is widely believed that the high resistivity in CdTe is due to the Fermi level pinning by native deep donors. The model based on shallow donor compensation of native...

Saturation of electrical resistivity
Resistivity saturation is observed in many metallic systems with a large resistivity, i.e., when the resistivity has reached a critical value, its further increase with temperature is substantially reduced. This typically happens when the apparent mean free path is comparable to the interatomic separations - the Ioffe-...
