Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The study of Galvano-magnetic effects (as well as tensoeffects) in silicon under extreme conditions allows not only to identify the mechanisms of these effects but also to identify the possibility of creating gaussmeters, infrared detectors, sensitive strain gauges, amplifiers and generators of a wide frequency range. The reliability of the mechanism of negative magnetoresistance was verified using uniaxial elastic deformation of the studied crystals. Uniaxial deformation excludes interline transitions of electrons, as a result of which negative magnetoresistance disappears with an increase in uniaxial pressure. When cubic symmetry is violated, anisotropic phenomena occur in such crystals. The multipath of the isoenergetic surface of the bottom of the silicon conduction band causes anisotropies of the effective mass and relaxation time, which are associated with the features of the transfer phenomenon. In particular, magnetoresistance (piezoresistance), which is the most sensitive to the anisotropy of the iso energy surface. The influence of the latter on magnetoresistance is most clearly revealed in the region of strong magnetic fields, where the magnetoresistance is saturated since the longitudinal magnetoresistance is entirely due to the anisotropy of electron mobility.
