A typical thickness for a copper conductor (known as an interconnect) in an integrated circuit is 250

Question:

A typical thickness for a copper conductor (known as an interconnect) in an integrated circuit is 250 nm. The mean free path of electrons in pure, annealed copper is about 40 nm. As the thickness of copper interconnects approaches the mean free path, how do you expect conduction in the interconnect is affected? Explain.
