28 Apr 2003 | | Subject: | Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect; Disordered Systems and Neural Networks | cond-mat.mes-hall cond-mat.dis-nn | | Abstract: | Mohanty and Webb [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 146601 (2002), cond-mat/0204298] claim that their data on conductance fluctuations in gold wires contradict the one-parameter scaling. We show that flaws in extracting values of the cumulants (irreducible moments) <> of the conductance distribution (for n=3,4) invalidate all the conclusions made there. The actual values of the cumulants determined by us from the published raw data contained in Ref. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 146601 (2002)] are orders of magnitude smaller than those claimed. Moreover, the limited applicability of the ergodicity hypothesis makes the higher order cumulants extracted from magnetofingerprints statistically unreliable. Thus, the data of Ref. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 146601 (2002)] do not warrant any statement on the violation or validity of the one-parameter scaling. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0304626 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
