Giant negative magnetoresistance accompanying a hopping conductivity in uncompensated silicon

A negative magnetoresistance has been observed under hopping-conductivity conditions in silicon with a dopant concentration N = 5Xl016-1017cm~3 and a degree of compensation^ = 10~^-3 Χ 10-2. This negative magnetoresistance reaches 100% at Η = 30 kOe. It is suggested that the effect stems from a structural change in the dopant band in a magnetic field
