Magnetotransport in a chaotic scattering cavity with tunable electron density
نویسنده
چکیده
We have measured the resistance versus magnetic field and Fermi energy for two stadium-shaped cavities in which chaotic scattering is expected. We fit the power spectra of the magnetoresistance fluctuations to semiclassical chaotic scattering theory and find a characteristic field which scales with cavity dimensions as predicted by classical simulations. Measurements of conductance versus Fermi energy indicate a significant contribution from short, non-chaotic paths. We have also studied the energy-averaged conductance as a function of magnetic field. We observe a ballistic weak localization effect similar to that predicted by recent calculations.

Magnetotransport properties of a polarization-doped three-dimensional electron slab in graded AlGaN
Shubnikov–de-Haas oscillation is observed in a polarization-doped three-dimensional electron slab in a graded AlxGa1!xN semiconductor layer. The electron slab is generated by the technique of grading the polar semiconductor alloy with spatially changing polarization. Temperature-dependent oscillations allow us to extract an effective mass of m*"0.21m0. The quantum scattering time measured (#q"0...
متن کاملUniversal statistics of the scattering coefficient of chaotic microwave cavities.
We consider the statistics of the scattering coefficient S of a chaotic microwave cavity coupled to a single port. We remove the nonuniversal effects of the coupling from the experimental S data using the radiation impedance obtained directly from the experiments. We thus obtain the normalized scattering coefficient whose probability density function (PDF) is predicted to be universal in that i...

متن کاملBias Voltage and Temperature Dependence of Hot Electron Magnetotransport
We present a qualitative model study of energy and temperature dependence of hot electron magnetotransport. This model calculations are based on a simple argument that the inelastic scattering strength of hot electrons is strongly spin and energy dependent in the ferromagnets. Since there is no clear experimental data to compare with this model calculations, we are not able to extract clear phy...
متن کاملShot noise by quantum scattering in chaotic cavities.
We have experimentally studied shot noise of chaotic cavities defined by two quantum point contacts in series. The cavity noise is determined as (1/4)2e/I/ in agreement with theory and can be well distinguished from other contributions to noise generated at the contacts. Subsequently, we have found that cavity noise decreases if one of the contacts is further opened and reaches nearly zero for ...
