The Gurzhi Effect Reaches Three Dimensions
feeds.aps.org · By Davis Thuillier ·
The Brief
- Measurements on micrometer-scale cadmium samples provide evidence of an unusual charge-transport regime in a three-dimensional metal.
- The work is reported as the Gurzhi effect reaching three dimensions, per the headline and the APS Physics summary.
- The article appeared in Physics volume 19, article 148 on 2026-11-09.
Why it matters
The result extends a charge-transport regime associated with the Gurzhi effect from its previously studied setting into a 3D metal, which bears on how electrons flow in real metallic devices at small scales.
