Abstract
  • A new, reproducible method of using electromigration to form metallic nano-conductors is developed using gold and a tin-silver alloy. Measurements revealed a quantization of the electrical conductance consistent with the theory of quantum conductance. The theory of quantum conductance is applied to show that a nano-conductor with a cross-section of only 12 or 13 atoms was created.
