Experimental validation of a higher dimensional theory of electrical contact resistance

Experimental validation of a higher dimensional theory of electrical contact resistance

The increased resistance of a cylindrical conducting channel due to constrictions of various radii and axial lengths was measured experimentally. The experimental data corroborate the higher dimensional contact resistance theory that was recently developed.
