The electrical conductivity of two-dimensional films filled with rodlike particles (rods) was simulated by the Monte Carlo method. The main attention has been paid to the investigation of the effect of the rod alignment on the electrical properties of the films. Both continuous and lattice approaches were used. Intersections of particles were forbidden. Our main findings are (i) both models demonstrate similar behaviors, (ii) at low concentration of rods, both approaches lead to the same dependencies of the electrical conductivity on the concentration of the rods, (iii) the alignment of the rods essentially affects the electrical conductivity, (iv) at some concentrations of partially aligned rods, the films may be conducting only in one direction, and (v) the films may simultaneously be both highly transparent and electrically anisotropic.
