Issue Date: | 7-Feb-2007 | Citation: | Xu, Y., Shi, X., Zeng, Z., Zeng, Z.Y., Li, B. (2007-02-07). Conductance oscillation and quantization in monatomic Al wires. Journal of Physics Condensed Matter 19 (5) : -.

The conductance of the monatomic Al wires oscillates with the number of constituent atoms as a function of the wire length, either with a period of four atoms, for wires with the typical interatomic spacing, or with a period of six atoms, for wires with the interatomic spacing of bulk face centred cubic aluminium, indicating a dependence of the period of conductance oscillation on the interatomic spacing of the monatomic Al wires. © IOP Publishing Ltd. | Source Title: | Journal of Physics Condensed Matter | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/96060 | ISSN: | 09538984 | DOI: | 10.1088/0953-8984/19/5/056010 |
