- sq 4. Maximum surface resistance. Consider a square sheet of side L, thickness d, and electrical resistivity p. The resistance measured between opposite edges of the sheet is called the surface resistance: R = pL/ Ld = p/d, which is independent of the area of the sheet. (R is called the resistance per square and is expected in ohms per square, because p/d has the dimensions of ohms.) If we express p by p=m/ne²t, then Rq=m/ndet. Suppose now that the minimum value of the collision time is determined by scattering from surfaces of the sheet, so that Td/v, where v is the Fermi velocity. Thus the maximum surface resistivity is Rmvp/nd²e².
