Lecture

Nanowires: Quantum Effects and Conductance Jumps

Description

This lecture explores the behavior of nanowires as their diameter decreases, leading to resistance changes by jumps due to quantum phenomena and mesoscopic effects. The instructor explains how to observe quantization of resistance, the conditions required, and practical methods to change the wire's effective diameter for conducting experiments.
