Limiting current density in a crossed-field nanogap.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using a mean-field theory, we have studied the quantum extension on the limiting current density in a crossed-field nanogap. When the gap spacing is less than the electron wavelength, our results show that the limiting current density is increased by a large factor from the classical values due to the effects of electron tunneling. The effects of the external magnetic field diminish with a decrease of gap spacing. Smooth transition from the classical regime to the quantum regime is demonstrated.

متن کاملHighly stable, extremely high-temperature, nonvolatile memory based on resistance switching in polycrystalline Pt nanogaps
Highly stable, nonvolatile, high-temperature memory based on resistance switching was realized using a polycrystalline platinum (Pt) nanogap. The operating temperature of the memory can be drastically increased by the presence of a sharp-edged Pt crystal facet in the nanogap. A short distance between the facet edges maintains the nanogap shape at high temperature, and the sharp shape of the nan...

متن کاملDirect imaging of nanogap-mode plasmon-resonant fields.
We perform direct local-field imaging of a plasmon-resonant gold nanoparticle pair separated by a gap of several nanometers using a scattering-type near-field optical microscope with a sharp silicon tip of atomic force microscope. The sharp tip allows the access for the nanogap and the high spatial resolution. Our results provide experimental evidence that the nanogap structure produces an opti...
