Magnetotransport in a two-dimensional electron gas at large filling factors

چکیده
We derive the quantum Boltzmann equation for the two-dimensional electron gas in a magnetic field such that the filling factor n@1. This equation describes all of the effects of the external fields on the impurity collision integral including Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations, the smooth part of the magnetoresistance, and nonlinear transport. Furthermore, we obtain quantitative results for the effect of the external microwave radiation on the linear and nonlinear dc transport in the system. Our findings are relevant for the description of the oscillating resistivity discovered by Zudov et al., the zero-resistance state discovered by Mani et al. and Zudov et al., and for the microscopic justification of the model of Andreev et al. We also present a semiclassical picture for the qualitative consideration of the effects of the applied field on the collision integral.

Magnetotransport in high mobility epitaxial graphene
Epitaxial graphene layers grown on single-crystal SiC have large structural coherence domains and can be easily patterned into submicron structures using standard microelectronics lithography techniques. Patterned structures show two-dimensional electron gas properties with mobilities exceeding 3 m2/Vs. Magnetotransport measurements (Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations) indicate that the transport p...

Using a new MBE growth technique, we fabricate a two-dimensional electron system which is bent around an atomically sharp 90 corner. In the quantum Hall regime under tilted magnetic fields, we can measure equilibration between both coand counter-propagating edge channels of arbitrary filling factor ratio. We present here 4-point magnetotransport characterization of the corner junction with fill...

O ct 1 99 9 Electronic Dephasing in the Quantum Hall Regime
By means of degenerate four-wave mixing (FWM), we investigate the quantum coherence of electron-hole pairs in the presence of a two-dimensional electron gas in modulation–doped GaAs-AlGaAs quantum wells in the quantum Hall effect regime. With increasing magnetic field, we observe a crossover from Markovian to non–Markovian behavior, as well as large jumps in the decay time of the FWM signal at ...
متن کاملLocal Field Correction Effect on Dicluster Stopping Power in a Strongly Coupled Two-Dimensional Electron Gas System
We calculate the stopping power for heavy-ion diclusters moving in a strongly coupled two-dimensional electron gas system by using the local field corrected dielectric function at finite temperature. We obtain a parameterized local field correction factor based on a relation between the thermal compressibility and exchange-correlation energy in two-dimension. The interpolated parameter is deriv...
