Figure 3From: Statistical and electrical properties of the conduction electrons of a metal nanosphere in the region of metal-insulator transitionNormalized DC conductivity. (a) Normalized DC conductivity vs rigid-wall sphere radius a=rsN1/3 at N from 2,000 to 2.5×105. Normalized DC conductivity of a neutral silver or gold sphere at (b) N= 180 to 382 and (c) N= 382 to 2,000. The grid lines are the same as in Figure 1.Back to article page
