We have investigated the charge transport in thin films of correlated Dirac semimetal of perovskite CaIrO3 by measurements of resistivity and optical spectra. The semimetallic transport of either electron-type or hole-type carrier is observed in the strain-relaxed thin films. By controlling the strain relaxation via thermal annealing, the carrier density decreases in both n-type and p-type samples, while enhancing the carrier mobility up to 160 cm(2) V-1 s(-1) at an electron density of 2.5 x 10(18) cm(-3) at 2 K. We propose that the energy of Dirac line node, which locates in proximity to the Fermi level, varies with the lattice distortion or strain-sensitive defect character, causing the sign change in the charge carrier as well as the mobility enhancement.
