| dc.description | We calculate the resistance between two arbitrary grid points of several infinite lattice structures of resistors by using lattice Green's functions. The resistance for $d$ dimensional hypercubic, rectangular, triangular and honeycomb lattices of resistors is discussed in detail. We give recurrence formulas for the resistance between arbitrary lattice points of the square lattice. For large separation between nodes we calculate the asymptotic form of the resistance for a square lattice and the finite limiting value of the resistance for a simple cubic lattice. We point out the relation between the resistance of the lattice and the van Hove singularity of the tight-binding Hamiltonian. Our Green's function method can be applied in a straightforward manner to other types of lattice structures and can be useful didactically for introducing many concepts used in condensed matter physics. | |
