1. Electrical properties

In this section, we focus on the behavior of metals in the normal state. The behavior of superconductors is developed in the article [D 2 701] .

1.1 Electrical resistivity

Electrical resistivity is related to the mean free path of electrons in the material. It is limited by interactions between electrons, defects or impurities in the crystal. At room temperature, the electrical resistivity of most pure metals decreases monotonically with temperature...
