摘要: In order to probe quantitatively the effect of Kondo impurities on energy exchange between electrons in metals, we have compared measurements two silver wires with dilute magnetic (manganese) introduced one them. The measurement temperature dependence electron phase coherence time provides an independent determination impurity concentration. Quantitative agreement rate is found a theory by Goppert et al. that accounts for scattering spin-1/2 impurities.
