Abstract

We have studied the effect of annealing on the transport properties of an epitaxial bismuth film. By annealing close to the melting temperature, the helium temperature resistivity is found to decrease by a factor of 15. The results are potentially of importance in connection with quantum size effect (QSE) measurements and the combined Shubnikov-de Haas effect-QSE.
