Popis: | We calculate the effect of single impurities in a ballistic, normal metal point contact on the electrical resistance. Both the cases of ordinary and magnetic impurities are considered. For small point contact diameters d comparable with the average impurity—impurity distance r 0 the discreteness of impurity positions is taken into account. In a quasiclassical approximation, the expression for the contact resistance is obtained, which is valid for an arbitrary relation between d and r 0 . The dependence of the point contact resistance on the ratio d / r 0 is studied. |
