Voltage profile and four-terminal resistance of an interacting quantum wire
We investigate the behavior of the four-terminal resistance R4pt in a quantum wire described by a Luttinger liquid in two relevant situations: (i) in the presence of a single impurity within the wire and (ii) under the effect of asymmetries introduced by disordered voltage probes. In the first case,...
