Abstract
High-field galvanomagnetic measurements are carried out on - and -type silicon in the concentration range corresponding to the metal-nonmetal transition. Abnormally large positive magnetoresistance is accompanied by a corresponding increase in the Hall coefficient with magnetic field. Expressions for resistivity and Hall coefficient are derived, and the predicted value of is consistent with experimental results.
