Abstract: Infinite-layer Nd_{1-x}Sr_{x}NiO_{2} thin films with Sr doping level x from 0.08 to 0.3 are synthesized and investigated. We find a superconducting dome x between 0.12 and 0.235 accompanied by a weakly insulating behavior in both under- and overdoped regimes. The dome is akin to that in the electron-doped 214-type and infinite-layer cuprate superconductors. For x≥0.18, the normal state Hall coefficient (R_{H}) changes the sign from negative to positive as the temperature decreases. The temperature of the sign changes decreases monotonically with decreasing x from the overdoped side and approaches the superconducting dome at the midpoint, suggesting a reconstruction of the Fermi surface with the dopant concentration across the dome.
