The resistance of a semiconductor nanowire is R=12.93 k? for wire lengths up to 100nm and increases by dR/dL = 3?/nm for wire lengths exceeding 100nm, measured at room temperature. If the effective electron mass is m*= 0.2 m0, what is the number of electrons per unit length in this nanowire?

Aluminum wires exposed to air form a layer of insulating Al2O3, through which electrons have to tunnel to get through an interconnect. A simple model of electrons tunneling through an Al2O3 barrier of thickness L between two Al wires implies the following: for small fixed voltage V, the current I is Ce^(-2KL), where C and K are constants. In other words, the resistance R=V/I increases proportional to e^(2KL). Solving the Schrödinger equation gives K=sqrt(2mU/ 2 ) where m is the...
