In our earlier work, where the traces of effect of resistance quantization in thin bismuth films were studied, we proposed the model, explaining the phenomena observed. In contrast to traditional model of Landauer our explanation is based upon analogy with non-stationary Josephson effect and is valid for systems with super low density of charge carriers. The history of Josephson effect observation in superfluid helium is nearly half a century old: pioneer’s experiments undertaken long ego in the group with the participation of famous theoretician P.W. Anderson led at last at our days to the creation of quite able-bodied quantum interferometer of DC-SQUID type in Berkeley laboratory. Thus, observation of Josephson effect in helium gives grounds to use our model to describe flowing of superfluid liquid in fine capillaries that allows predicting the effect of hydrodynamic resistance quantization.
