Demonstration of the Atomic-Scale Gold Junction as a Voltage Switch

Caption

Control of thermoelectric voltage (VT) and conductance (G) with the periodic variation of elongation of the contact (D). The elongations in (a) and (b) were 0.73 nm and 0.10 nm with temperature differences of 10 K and 4.4 K, respectively.
