Ballistic Conduction - Importance of Ballistic Conductivity

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:

    The awareness of the all-surpassing importance of social groups is now general property in America.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    “I’m sure you’ve often wished there was an after-life.” Of course I had, I told him. Everybody has that wish at times. But that had no more importance than wishing to be rich, or to swim very fast, or to have a better-shaped mouth.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
