Question

conductivity of metallic nano wire

​

Answer 1

Conductivity of nanowires

In copper, for example, the mean free path is 40 nm. Copper nanowires less than 40 nm wide will shorten the mean free path to the wire width. Silver nanowires have very different electrical and thermal conductivity from bulk silver.

Answer 2

Conductivity of
