Importance of Ballistic Conductivity
Ballistic conduction enables use of quantum mechanical properties of electron wave functions. Ballistic transport is coherent in wave mechanics terms. Phenomena like double-split interference, spacial resonance (and other optical or microwave-like effects) could be exploited in electronic systems at nanoscale.

Famous quotes containing the words importance of and/or importance:
“... women especially seem to have very little idea of the importance of business time.”
—Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
“What is done for science must also be done for art: accepting undesirable side effects for the sake of the main goal, and moreover diminishing their importance by making this main goal more magnificent. For one should reform forward, not backward: social illnesses, revolutions, are evolutions inhibited by a conserving stupidity.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
