Abstract
Transport properties of KxC70 thin films doped to their maximum conduc tivity are studied. At this doping level, KxC70 (nominally K4C70) is c haracteristic of a disordered metal with room-temperature conductivity close to 600 S/cm. The conduction bandwidth is estimated as 0.5-0.6 e V. The thermopower and magnetoconductance data are similar to those of K3C60 and intercalated carbon materials. No superconducting transitio n is observed above 1.35 K.
