Under different annealing conditions, we find that the resistances of the samples decrease with an increase of the annealing temperature. We argued that the charging energy and quantization effects are negligible small in our case so we used thermal activation of nearest neighbor hopping and Mott’s variable range hopping theories to explain our experimental results at high and low temperatures. Through scrutinizing all fitting parameters, we discovered a crossover from localized regime to extended regime which is possibly manipulated by the inter-particle coupling strength. In the localized regime, the activation energy at high temperature is used for an excitation from the Fermi level to the 1S state of PbSe nanopaticles for hopping transport between nanoparticles. In the extended regime, the activation energy of the sample at high temperature is half of the case in the localized regime, which evidences the absence of excitation energy.
