    Undergrad Fuchs-Sondheimer Resistivity model for Nanowires

    Yes, you are right. I am trying other formula now. The calculation take long time though. Still not sure about the result.

    Undergrad Fuchs-Sondheimer Resistivity model for Nanowires

    Yes, I chose p=0.5 in order to recreate the plot on the paper.

    Undergrad Fuchs-Sondheimer Resistivity model for Nanowires

    The plot is ##\rho(w)## vs. ##\w##. ##\rho _0## is the bulk resistivity, considered a constant.

    Undergrad Fuchs-Sondheimer Resistivity model for Nanowires

    Apologize, what I meant is resistivity decreases with decreasing width. This is the opposite of the model prediction. This term below, increases with dicreasing width. This make the resistivity decreases with decreasing width.I finish calculating it with MATLAB to double check. It shows the...

    Undergrad Fuchs-Sondheimer Resistivity model for Nanowires

    yes, the paper does say so. When I calculate it, the result is the opposite. This term below, increases with dicreasing width. This make the resistivity increases with decreasing width. I calculated it with Mathcad. The integration is difficult, so I cannot check it by hand calculation...

    Undergrad Fuchs-Sondheimer Resistivity model for Nanowires

    I calculated FS Model using Mathcad and I got that this part increases with decreasing width $\w$. This make the resistivity increases with decreasing width $\w$. This contradict the result of this model. Has anyone ever come across with this before? the original paper...
