The temperature dependences of the electrical resistivity along the c-axis of YBa2Cu3O7-δ single crystals before and after irradiation with various doses (from 1.4 ·1018 cm-2 to 8.8·1018 cm-2) of high-energy electrons at T ≤ 10 K (energy 0.5-2.5 MeV) were investigated. It was found that in the case of the YBa2Cu3O7-δ, as the radiation dose increases, the carrier localization processes increase, which is accompanied by a transition from the PG mode to the hopping conductivity mode with a variable long jump.
