Guiding center linear magnetoresistance in the semi-classical regime
We predict that an unconventional guiding center (GC) motion yields a new mechanism for linear and non-saturating (transverse) magnetoresistance in 3D metals. Our theory is semi-classical and applies in the regime where the transport time is much greater than the cyclotron period, and for weak disorder potentials which are slowly varying on a length scale much greater than the cyclotron radius....
متن کاملMemory Effects in Backscattering of Two-Dimensional Electrons in Corrugated Systems
The classical low-field magnetoresistance (MR) in metals and semiconductors has been recently revised, since it was recognized that the conventional Boltzmann-Drude approach fails to describe the electron dynamics in disordered systems [1–3]. According to the Boltzmann-Drude model, magnetoresistance must yield no change, in the presence of short range electrostatic potential, which is in disagr...
متن کاملHeavy Metals (Cd, Cu, Ni, Zn and Pb) Uptake by Various Components of Smooth-Leaved Elm (Ulmus carpinifolia) Tree in Abadeh City
The concentrations of cadmium, copper, nickel, zinc and lead were investigated in various components of smooth-leaved elm (Ulmus carpinifolia) tree in three sites (polluted, moderately polluted, and control) in Abadeh, Iran, in July 2015. The experiment was conducted using factorial experiment in a Completely Randomized Design with three replications. The concentration of heavy metals was measu...
متن کاملTwo New Non-AFR Criteria for Depicting Strength Differential Effect (SDE) in Anisotropic Sheet Metals
The issue of pressure sensitivity of anisotropic sheet metals is investigated with introducing two new non-AFR criteria which are called here linear and non-Linear pressure sensitive criteria. The yield and plastic potential functions of these criteria are calibrated with directional tensile/compressive yield stresses and directional tensile Lankford coefficients, respectively. To determine unk...
متن کاملQuasilinear quantum magnetoresistance in pressure-induced nonsymmorphic superconductor chromium arsenide
In conventional metals, modification of electron trajectories under magnetic field gives rise to a magnetoresistance that varies quadratically at low field, followed by a saturation at high field for closed orbits on the Fermi surface. Deviations from the conventional behaviour, for example, the observation of a linear magnetoresistance, or a non-saturating magnetoresistance, have been attribut...
