The resistance of a conductor measured in a four-probe setup is invariant if the exchange of
the voltage and current sources is accompanied by a magnetic field reversal. We present a …

The physics of disordered systems has enjoyed a resurgence of interest in the last decade.
New concepts such as weak localization, interaction effects and Coulomb gap, have been …

We report equilibrium electric resistance R and tunneling spectroscopy (dI/dV)
measurements obtained on single multi-wall nanotubes contacted by four metallic Au fingers …

We re-examine the question of what constitutes the physically relevant quantum-mechanical
expression for the resistance of a disordered conductor in light of recent experimental and …

Device analysis has traditionally been based on the semiclassical Boltzmann transport
equation. Despite its impressive successes, this approach suffers from an important …

Volume 1 of this journal, thirty-one years ago, included a paper with the above title. Studies
of small samples, in recent years, as well as earlier work on disordered samples, have …

The authors review conductance effects in small samples at low temperatures where
quantum confinement and quantum interference are significant perturbations on the …

This paper describes a novel analytical approach to the problem of conductance fluctuations
in mesoscopic systems which, in particular, gives account of the influence of the coupling to …

Hofstadter's diagram (the energy spectrum against the magnetic field in tight-binding
systems) is obtained for the models having flat one-electron band (s) that have originally …

Recent experiments on metallic and semiconductor nanostructures have shown that
ultrasmall devices have to be viewed as microwave networks rather than as ordinary circuit …
