Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Experiments with thin Ag layers (dN∼100-700) backed by thicker Pb (dS∼3500) have led Khim and Tomasch to infer large effective renormalizations for Ag that increase with decreasing dN, even though the electron-phonon interaction presumably retains its bulk character. Arnold has recently shown that dirty proximity superconductors violate Anderson's theorem and that, in this regime, the usual treatment of elastic scattering is inappropriate for Andreev interference phenomena. He finds that both the pairing potential, ΔN(E), and the effective layer renormalization, ZN(E), are influenced strongly by scattering. Our reanalysis, based on Arnold's theory and on Gallagher's compound-resonance theory, assumes bulk behavior for the Ag electron-phonon interaction. We obtain successful quantitative agreement with the Ag-Pb data when the Ag mean free path nearly equals the Ag film thickness. Our best estimates of the dressed Fermi velocities are vFS*(Pb)=(0.72±0.06)×106 m/s and vFN*(Ag)=(1.07±0.06)×106 m/s. © 1981 The American Physical Society.
