Abstract
A good way to identify microscopic conduction regimes where current flow deviates from Ohm’s law is still lacking. Here, the authors identify Sondheimer oscillations as a quantitative probe of the length scale of relaxing electron scattering in studying the non-ohmic electron flow of WP2 crystals.
