Electrons in conductors suffer frequent scatterings with defects and phonons, and the diffusive macroscopic behaviors are determined by an external electric field through Ohms law. If electrons are no longer diffusive, the Ohmic description…
Magnetoconductance fluctuations are used to study the effect of an applied bias on an electron billiard. At lower bias, nonlinear effects can be well described by electron heating alone, while at higher bias (V > 2mV, ~5% of the electron…
