Electrical resistivity (also called volume resistivity or specific electrical resistance) is a fundamental specific property of a material that measures its electrical resistance or how strongly it resists electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows electric current.
The table below lists the resistivity of some common materials. The resistivity of amorphous carbon actually has a range of 3.8 – 4.1 × 10 −6 Ω m. Material
Also called chordal or DC resistance This corresponds to the usual definition of resistance; the voltage divided by the current R s t a t i c = V I. {\displaystyle R_{\mathrm {static} }={V \over I}.} It is the slope of the line (chord) from the origin through the point on the curve. Static resistance determines the power dissipation in an electrical component. Points on the current–voltage ...

The International Annealed Copper Standard (IACS) is a standard established in 1914 by the United States Department of Commerce. [1] It is an empirically derived standard value for the electrical conductivity of commercially available copper.
Experiments have shown that the value of L, while roughly constant, is not exactly the same for all materials. Kittel [ 8 ] gives some values of L ranging from L = 2.23×10 −8 V 2 K −2 for copper at 0 °C to L = 3.2×10 −8 V 2 K −2 for tungsten at 100 °C.
The units of specific contact resistivity are typically therefore in ohm-square metre, or Ω⋅m 2. When the current is a linear function of the voltage, the device is said to have ohmic contacts. Inductive and capacitive methods could be used in principle to measure an intrinsic impedance without the complication of contact resistance.
