In this work, we present first AC conductivity measurements of both amorphous and polycrystalline Cd3As2 thin films (~50 nm) in the frequency range 25-106 Hz and temperature range 10-300 K. Cd3As2 thin films were grown by non-reactive AC magnetron sputtering. Both samples show a strong frequency dependence of the total conductivity in the order of 10(4) omega(-1) cm(-1). It was found that the DC conductivity, deduced from the total conductivity of Cd3As2 thin films, increases with increasing temperature. The experimental results indicate exponent values s > 1 and s > 2, which contradicts the universal dynamic response. In Cd3As2 films is observed a crossover of metal-semiconductor type at low temperatures, which is characteristic of topological materials. The results show a clearly frequency dependence of the mechanism of AC conductivity of Cd3As2 films in a wide range of temperatures.
