Abstract:The classical, electrodynamic denition of the ampere is incoherent with quantum electrodynamics. The problem, although insignicant at the macroscopic scale, manifests clearly at the nanostructure level, where the consistently quantum approach is necessary. In this paper, we consider the Casimir eect to quantify inconsistencies that could have resulted if electric metrology of microstructures and nanostructures (including graphene) had been based on classical electrodynamics and the current SI denition of the a… Show more
