Localization and size effects in single-crystal Au films
Abstract
We show that localization effects can be significantly enhanced in the presence of quantum size effects. We have made measurements on single-crystal gold films of thicknesses less than 10 nm. An enhanced logarithmic temperature dependence of the resistance and a negative magnetoresistance provide qualitative support for this model. © 1985 The American Physical Society.
