N. Pfeiffer , K. W. West , J. L. Reno ( Condensed Matter Theory Center, Department of Physics, University of Maryland, Sandia National Laboratories, Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies | Abstract: | By carefully analyzing the low temperature density dependence of 2D conductivity in undoped high mobility n-GaAs heterostructures, we conclude that the 2D metal-insulator transition in this system is a density inhomogeneity driven percolation transition due to the breakdown of screening in the random charged impurity disorder background. In particular, our measured conductivity exponent of $sim 1.4$ approaches the 2D percolation exponent value of 4/3 at low temperatures and our experimental data are inconsistent with there being a zero-temperature quantum critical point in our system. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0406655 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
