Physical Properties of Thin Metallic Films. I. Magneto-Resistance Effects in Thin Films of Bismuth

Abstract
Magneto-resistance effects in bismuth; an historical summary.—(1) Bismuth in bulk. This historical sketch includes allusions to the most important work which has been done on the effect of a magnetic field upon the resistance of bismuth in bulk. A complete set of references is included. (2) Bismuth films. A summary has also been prepared of experiments on the effect of a magnetic field on the resistance of bismuth films obtained by cathodic sputtering.
