Non-Local Transport in a Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotube

Abstract

Non-local electric transport phenomena were observed for a multi-wall carbon nanotube. The magnetic field dependence of non-local resistance was out of phase with respect to the conventional four-probe resistance, which could be explained in terms of the Landauer-Büttiker formula. Our observations indicate that the phase coherence length of multi-wall carbon nanotube exceeds the voltage probe length of about 1.1 μm at the measured temperatures.
