The structure, DC conductance σ and dielectric coefficient ε″(ω) of discontinued Ni nano-granular films have been studied as a function of Ni nominal thickness. The activation energy was obtained by both temperature dependent DC conductance and dielectric spectrum (DS) measurements, the charging energy was estimated from the grain size and separation, which were measured by AFM. It was found that the activation energy and the charging energy are similar both in the values and the trends vs. Ni nominal thickness, which is in agreement with the assumption of Sheng-Abeles model. These measurements indicate that, unlike the usual temperature measurements, DS technique is another suitable method for studing film transport, especially for exploring the active mechanism.
