description

Physical properties of quasi-one-dimensional superconducting channels (nanowires) can differ significantly from those of bulk superconductors. The reason behind is the impact of thermal and quantum fluctuations. In the particular case of resistive measurements the fluctuations may significantly broaden the superconducting transition R(T). Here we review the activities in the field with main emphasis on experiment, while brief theoretical background is also presented.
