Metal-insulator transition in disordered two-dimensional electron systems.
We present a theory of the metal-insulator transition in a disordered two-dimensional electron gas. A quantum critical point, separating the metallic phase, which is stabilized by electronic interactions, from the insulating phase, where disorder prevails over the electronic interactions, has been identified. The existence of the quantum critical point leads to a divergence in the density of st...
متن کاملMetal-insulator transition in two-dimensional electron systems
Abstract. The interplay between strong Coulomb interactions and randomness has been a long-standing problem in condensed matter physics. According to the scaling theory of localization, in two-dimensional systems of noninteracting or weakly interacting electrons, the ever-present randomness causes the resistance to rise as the temperature is decreased, leading to an insulating ground state. How...
متن کاملMetal-Insulator Transition in Disordered and Interacting Electron Systems
For a system of interacting electrons moving in a random potential, it is shown that screening by the Coulomb interaction suppresses long-wavelength potential fluctuations. As a result, the lower critical dimensionality for metal-insulator transition is reduced from the noninteracting value of 2 to 4/3. Therefore there is a transition in two dimensions, consistent with recent experiments. For a...

متن کاملDimensional crossover and metal-insulator transition in quasi-two-dimensional disordered conductors
We study the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in weakly coupled disordered planes on the basis of a Non-Linear Sigma Model (NLσM). Using two different methods, a renormalization group (RG) approach and an auxiliary field method, we calculate the crossover length between a 2D regime at small length scales and a 3D regime at larger length scales. The 3D regime is described by an anisotropic 3D NL...
