The electrical resistivity of Fermi liquids usually shows square power law with respect to temperature (T 2) due to either inter-bandscattering or Umklapp process. Here, authors report T 2 resitivity below a temperature where neither Umkapp nor interband scattering is responsible in a dilute metal Bi2O2Se.
