Shell effects in alkali metal nanowires

After making a cold weld by pressing two clean metal surfaces together, and gradually separating the two pieces, a metallic nanowire is formed, which is progressively thinning down to a single atom before the contact is lost. We show evidence that the radii of such nanowires are influenc...
