When polarized electrons traverse a region where the laser light is focused their polarization varies even if their energy and direction of motion are not changed. This effect is due to interference of the incoming electron wave and an…

Weak localization leads to the same correction to both the conductivity and the electron-phonon coupling constant $\lambda$ (and $\lambda_{tr}$). Consequently the temperature dependence of the (thermal) electrical resistivity is decreasing…
