Abstract
We have found that a high-field domain appears in a quantum wire with ballistic transport under far from equilibrium condition. The domain is located near the injecting electrode. The applied voltage drops mainly across the domain while the rest part of the wire remains nearly equipotential. The potential hump in the domain limits the current through the wire.
