摘要
We study the electron drift mobility in a metallic nanowire (at low temperature) as a function of both electron energy and electrochemical potential from considerations relative to energy-dependent conductance and carrier spatial density. In fact, a mathematical expression for the electron mobility, when electronic energy equals Fermi energy (resonant states), valid for negative values of the electrochemical potential is derived.
