Title: CONDUCTIVITY OF LAYERED STRUCTURES WITH A STRONGLY DEGENERATE ELECTRON GAS
Authors: P.P.Petrov (State University ``Lvivska Politechnika'', 12 S.Bandera Str., 290646 Lviv, Ukraine)

The conductivity of periodical multilayer structures with a degenerate electron gas is calculated. It is shown that for smooth tunnelly transparent barriers the resistivity of structure coincides with the corresponding value of the bulk material. In the presence of a random potential at the interface between the layers, the conductivity of the system decreases with the increase of a ratio of the mean free path to the period of the structure.
