A wedge-shaped Pt-film percolation system was prepared by the magnetro
n sputtering method. A new nonlinear I-V behavior was found and can be
well explained by the location-dependent hopping effect. Power-law be
havior, sigma (omega) alpha omega(x) and epsilon (omega) alpha omega(-
y), is observed near the percolation threshold. The exponents x and y
are found to be 0.87 +/- 0.04 and 0.08 +/- 0.03, respectively, in agre
ement with the general scaling relation x + y = 1.
