It is generally known that most metals conduct electricity. This is because some of the electrons in a so-called conduction band move unhindered through the crystalline lattice. This type of ...

The prospect of electronics at the nanoscale may be even more promising with the first observation of metallic conductance in ferroelectric nanodomains. The prospect of electronics at the nanoscale ...
