Abstract
We have measured electron transport in small bundles of identical conducting molybdenum selenide nanowires where the number of weakly interacting one-dimensional chains ranges from 1 to 300. The linear conductance and current in these nanowires exhibit a power-law dependence on temperature and bias voltage, respectively. The exponents governing these power laws decrease as the number of conducting channels increase. These exponents can be related to the electron-electron interaction parameter for transport in multichannel 1D systems with a few defects.
