The temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity and the curr
ent-voltage characteristics have been determined under various conditi
ons for the layered semimagnetic semiconductor MnGaInS4. In the nonlin
ear part of the current-voltage characteristic the current is attribut
able to unipolar injection and to the field effect. The energies of el
ectron trapping centers and concentrations of these centers have been
determined. The energy of the potential well has also been determined.
