Universal features of electron-phonon interactions in atomic wires
L. de la Vega, A. Martin-Rodero, N. Agrait +1
The effect of electron-phonon interactions in the conductance through metallic atomic wires is theoretically analyzed. The proposed model allows to consider an atomic size region e…
Distribution of conduction channels in nanoscale contacts: Evolution towards the diffusive limit
J. J. Riquelme, L. de la Vega, A. Levy Yeyati +3
We present an experimental determination of the conduction channel distribution in lead nanoscale contacts with total conductances ranging from 1 to 15 G0, where G0=2e2/h. It is fo…
Different wavelength oscillations in the conductance of 5d metal atomic chains
L. de la Vega, A. Martin-Rodero, A. Levy Yeyati +1
Combining ab-initio and self-consistent parametrized tight-binding calculations we analyze the conductance properties of atomic chains of 5d elements like Au, Pt and Ir. It is show…
