In this work, the fractal dimensions and electric properties of carbon films embedded by nickel nanoparticles annealed at different temperature 300, 500 and 800 °C were investigated. A detailed analysis in terms of small polaron hoping (SPH) parameters is used to correlate electrical transport properties with annealing temperature in the range 150-300 K. It can be seen that with increasing annealing temperature up to 500 °C the polaron radius (rp) decrease and has a minimum value 4.58 Ã 10â8 cm then from 500 °C to 800 °C it increased to 6.13 Ã 10â8 cm. The polaron hopping energy (WH) at 500 °C has minimum value 0.017 eV while the density of states N(EF) at the Fermi level has maximum value 5.43 Ã 1021 eVâ1 cmâ3. It can be seen that polaron hopping energy, density of state at Fermi energy and carrier mobility of films correlate with fractal dimensions of films which obtained from the power spectral densities (PSDs) analyses. It can be seen that there are a fluctuation in the polaron mass (mp) and at 500 °C which correspond to maximum value of fractal dimension, has minimum value. With increasing fractal dimensions, carrier mobility of films decreases and have minimum value 1.2 Ã 10â10 sâ1 Vâ1 cm2.
