Abstract

The electrical conductivity of ZnIn2S4 (III) measured along the c-axis of this compound and perpendicular to it, is highly anisotropic. This anisotropy itself and its temperature dependence are explained by the existence of composition faults between the layers of ZnIn2S4 (III), which are observed by means of electron microscopy.
