McEuen et al., Nature 407, 57 (2000). Not always end up with nanogaps. Understanding of the physics of EM is very important! H. K. Park et al., APL, 75, 301 (1999).

13 Technological Implication of EM Spectra surface diffusion potential activation energy of MTTF nanojunction wire Counts ev nanojunction region -e ev J 10 diffusion potential Vc (V) τ E a exp ( E k T ) a = 0.42eV B The EM spectrum has a peak at the activation energy for the mean time to failure (MTTF) of metallic wires. E a can be determined from EM spectra.
14 Stability and Critical Current Density (V C ~ 0.3 V for Ni) Ni nanogap electrode J is of the order of A/cm 2! K. Yoshida, A. Umeno, S. Sakata, and K. Hirakawa, submitted. When V J < V C, a 3-atom Ni junction is very stable. The current density is of the order of cm 2, which is 4 orders of magnitude larger than the critical current density known for EM.
15 Summary We have investigated the elementary process of EM in the ballistic regime by introducing a novel spectroscopic approach ( EM spectroscopy ) EM is induced by kinetic energy transfer from a single electron to a single atom. The crucial parameter is the junction voltage, not the current density! V C ~ E d /e Metal junctions are stable even when j ~ A/cm 2, as long as V J < V C.
