Abstract
Fluctuation-induced conductivity (FIC) in indium films containing paramagnetic impurities (gadolinium) is investigated. The FIC is well described as the sum of the Aslamazov-Larkin (AL) term, the Maki-Thompson (MT) term and the third term. The sum of the AL term and the MT term is insufficient to express the FIC. The pair-breaking parameter δ depends not only on the normal state sheet resistance but also on the concentration of gadolinium impurities in the manner predicted by Thompson. Experimental data are analysed also by the use of the formulae proposed by one of the present authors (K.O) in which the magnetic impurity effect is explicitly taken into account.
