Mesoscopics and the High $T_c$ Problem
arXiv:0911.3695
Abstract
Mesoscopic physics concerns itself with systems which are intermediate between a single atom and a bulk solid. Besides the many intrinsically interesting properties of mesoscopic systems, they can also provide physical insight into the physics of bulk systems. Here we discuss three examples of this from the field of high temperature superconductivity.
