Abstract
The conductance of quantum point contact in scanning tunneling microscope is calculated by modal matching and scattering matrix method. The results show that the conductance of the nano-structure formed during quantum point contact in STM is quantized, which becomes more obvious as the radius and cone angle of the nano-structure decreases. The quantitative behavior could be observed more easily with semiconductors than with metals.
