The semiconducting properties of anodic film formed on Pb in 4.5mol·dm −3 H 2 SO 4 solution (30°C) at 0.9 V (vs. Hg/Hg 2 SO 4 ) for 2 h were studied using AC impedance method. The phase composition of the film is PbSO 4 and PbO·PbSO 4 . The semiconducting properties are due to the latter. The Mott‐Schottky plots show that the said film is an n ‐type semiconductor with flat‐band potential of −0.9 V (vs. Hg/Hg 2 SO 4 ) and donor density of 1×10 16 cm −3 . The surface density measured at 410–2500 Hz is (2–5)×10 12 cm −2 eV −1 .
