The temperature dependence of the DC electrical conductivity σ_DC was measured in the temperature range from 300–500 K. It was found that there are double activation energies, E_σ, for Ge₂₀Se_80−xBi_x (x=0, 2.5 and 5 at%) films, while there is single activation energy for Ge₂₀Se_72.5Bi_7.5. when incorporation of Bi=7.5 at%, the pre-exponential value σ₀ decreases by about six order of magnitude, the activation energy in the extended states E_σ decreases from 0.96 to 0.09 eV. Also the effect of applied electric field was studied and observed that, activation energy in high temperature region increases with increasing electric field; this behavior can be understood assuming that the contribution to the conductivity activation process is due to conduction in the extended states and also due to hopping in the localized states. With the increasing electric field, as former process, which is having high activation energy …
