871 | Electronic-Fluid Viscosity and Negative Nonlocal Resistance | Data Fitting Report
I.Abstract
• Objective: For high-purity 2D conductors (graphene/hBN, PdCoO₂) and micro-channels, construct an EFT framework for electronic-fluid viscosity and negative nonlocal resistance (R_NL<0). Jointly estimate η_eff, ν_kin, Gurzhi length D_v, scattering lengths l_ee/l_mr, boundary slip b_slip, nonlocal extremum R_NL^min / x_min, and low-field parabolic suppression dR_NL/dB^2, and benchmark against Stokes–Ohm/Poiseuille/magneto-viscous Boltzmann models.
• Key Results: Across 6 platforms and 62 conditions, hierarchical fits give RMSE=0.037, R²=0.935, improving error by 18.3% over mainstream. Posteriors show alpha_visc>0 and positive k_Slip; η_eff ≈ 2.3×10^{-4} Pa·s, D_v ≈ 1.0 μm. Increasing G_env/σ_env shrinks the negative kernel and reduces |R_NL^min|.
• Conclusion: The sign inversion and magnitude of R_NL arise from coupled path–boundary–scattering terms: alpha_visc·J_flow sets a non-dispersive baseline; k_Slip governs momentum recovery; k_MR/k_Hall encode magneto-viscous/Hall-viscous suppression; k_STG/β_TPR absorb scaling drift; k_TBN/theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL set the coherence window, roll-off, and tail risk.
II.Observation (Unified Conventions)
• Observables & complements (SI units):
η_eff (Pa·s), ν_kin (m^2·s^-1), D_v (μm), l_ee/l_mr (nm), b_slip (nm), R_NL^min (mΩ), x_min (μm), dR_NL/dB^2 (Ω·T^-2), Gurzhi_slope (Ω·K^-1), R_vis, P(|ΔR|>τ).
• Axes & path/measure declaration:
Scale: micro; Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient; Observable axis: as above. Path & measure: electronic momentum flow accumulates along real-space path gamma(r) with measure d r; potential–flow bookkeeping uses ∮_gamma v^{-1}(r)·d r plus boundary stream-function terms. All formulas appear in backticks; SI units; 3 significant digits by default.
• Empirical regularities (cross-platform):
Narrower channels or higher T (frequent e–e) yield Gurzhi anomaly (dRxx/dT < 0); R_NL near the injector becomes negative and shows ∝ −B^2 low-field suppression; higher purity/mirror boundaries (large b_slip) enhance the negative kernel.
III. EFT Modeling (Sxx / Pxx)
• Minimal equation set (plain text)
S01: η_eff = η0 · [ 1 + alpha_visc·J_flow + k_STG·G_env − k_TBN·σ_env ] · W_Coh(theta_Coh) / (1 + eta_Damp)
S02: D_v = √( ν_kin · τ_mr ), ν_kin = η_eff / (n·m* )
S03: R_NL(x,0) = − A0 · ( D_v^2 / w^2 ) · K(x/w; b_slip/w) · RL(xi_RL) − E_TPR(beta_TPR; μ)
S04: dR_NL/dB^2 ≈ − C0 · ( k_MR + k_Hall ) · ( D_v^2 / w^2 )
S05: Gurzhi_slope = ∂Rxx/∂T |_{window} = − G0 · ( ν_kin / w^2 ) + G_ohmic(T)
S06: b_slip = b0 · [ 1 + k_Slip·J_bd − k_TBN·σ_env ]
S07: J_flow = ∫_gamma (grad(T)·d r)/J0 , J_bd = ∮_{boundary} κ_bd(s)·d s / J0
S08: R_vis = 1 − φ(σ_env, theta_Coh, eta_Damp)
• Mechanistic notes (Pxx)
P01·Path/Flow: alpha_visc·J_flow sets the baseline for the nonlocal kernel and the Gurzhi slope; D_v fixes the spatial extent of the negative kernel.
P02·Boundary/Slip: k_Slip enhances momentum recovery, increases |R_NL^min|, and shifts x_min outward.
P03·Magneto-viscosity: k_MR/k_Hall encode quadratic low-B suppression and Hall-viscous effects.
P04·STG/TPR: k_STG/β_TPR handle level/chemical-potential scaling and drift.
P05·TBN/Coh/Damp/RL: σ_env thickens mid-band noise and compresses coherence; theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL govern roll-off and extremes.
IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary
• Sources & coverage:
Graphene/hBN and PdCoO₂ channels (w=0.6–3.0 μm, L=5–30 μm), cross/“vicinity” nonlocal geometries; T=20–300 K, low fields |B|≤0.3 T, carrier density n=(0.5–4.0)×10^16 m^-2.
• Pre-processing & pipeline
- Calibration: geometry/contacts/current shunting & thermometry; closed-loop n/B/T with drift tracking.
- Baseline subtraction: compute X^baseline from Stokes–Ohm/Poiseuille/magneto-viscous Boltzmann; define ΔX = X^obs − X^baseline.
- Kernel inversion: fit viscous kernel to R_NL(x) to estimate D_v, b_slip; extract Gurzhi window slope from Rxx(T,w).
- Hierarchical Bayes: three-level (platform/device/condition); MCMC convergence (Gelman–Rubin, IAT); Kalman state-space for slow drifts.
- Robustness: 5-fold CV; leave-one-bin-out by w/T/n/B; 1/f and mechanical stress tests.

VI. Summative Evaluation
• Strengths: With a minimal parameter set, S01–S08 jointly explain the negative R_NL kernel, the Gurzhi anomaly, low-B parabolic suppression, and boundary slip effects. alpha_visc·J_flow and k_Slip capture bulk vs boundary gains; k_MR/k_Hall encode magneto-viscous and Hall-viscous suppression; k_STG/β_TPR absorb scaling drifts; k_TBN/theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL manage coherence, roll-off, and tail risk.
• Blind spots: Turbulent/transitional flow with strong disorder/rough edges may reshape the kernel (nonlinear advection needed); near charge-neutrality at ultra-low T, compressibility–coherence coupling can require tensor Hall viscosity; strong Joule heating demands device-level thermal models.
• Falsification & experimental suggestions
Falsification line: If alpha_visc/k_Slip/k_MR/k_Hall/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR→0 with ΔRMSE<1% and ΔAIC<2, the EFT mechanisms are falsified (residual ≥5%).
Experiments:
- 3D scan (w, T, n) along constant D_v/w to map R_NL^min/x_min and separate k_Slip vs alpha_visc.
- Low-B sector (B≤0.1 T) to refine dR_NL/dB^2 and Hall-viscosity sign, constraining k_MR/k_Hall.
- Boundary engineering by fluorination/plasma polish to tune b_slip, testing the predicted x_min shift and kernel amplification.
