Variation of energy gap and resistivity minimum position with thickness in bismuth thin films

TL;DR: In this paper, Wismuth thin films of different thicknesses between about 20 and 225 nm are vacuum deposited at room temperature in a vacuum of 3 × 10−3 Pa. The films are heat-treated "in situ" and the resistances monitored.
