Abstract: We report about the measurement of the electric characteristics of some NTD Ge thermistors at temperatures down to 25 mK. The dopant concentration is around 6×1016cm-3, producing a material of characteristics close to the metal-to-insulator transition. Fitting the ?(T) characteristics with a variable exponent p Mott\’s law, a p around 0.6 was obtained. This result confirms the hypothesis of a dependence of p on the doping level.
