چکیده
We have observed reproducible conductance fluctuations at low temperature in a small GaAs:Si wire driven across the Anderson transition by the application of a gate voltage. We analyse quantitatively the log-normal conductance statistics in terms of truncated

Conductance statistics in small GaAs:Si wires at low temperatures. I. Theoretical analysis: truncated quantum fluctuations in insulating wires
We analyse in detail Mott's variable range hopping in one dimension, expanding on earlier work by Raikh and Ruzin. We show that the large conductance fluctuations in disordered insulators result from a subtle interplay between purely quantum phenomena and geometrical fluctuations arising from the energies and locations of the impurities. Our results compare very well with both experiments and n...
متن کاملQuantum spin hall insulator state in HgTe quantum wells.
Recent theory predicted that the quantum spin Hall effect, a fundamentally new quantum state of matter that exists at zero external magnetic field, may be realized in HgTe/(Hg,Cd)Te quantum wells. We fabricated such sample structures with low density and high mobility in which we could tune, through an external gate voltage, the carrier conduction from n-type to p-type, passing through an insul...

متن کاملTransition from insulating to a non - insulating temperature dependence of the conductivity in granular metals
We consider interaction effects in a granular normal metal at not very low temperatures. Assuming that all weak localization effects are suppressed by the temperature we replace the initial Hamiltonian by a proper functional of phases and study the possibility for a phase transition depending on the tunneling conductance g. It is demonstrated for any dimension that, while at small g the conduct...
متن کاملConductance in quantum wires by three quantum dots arrays
A noninteracting quantum-dot arrays side coupled to a quantum wire is studied. Transport through the quantum wire is investigated by using a noninteracting Anderson tunneling Hamiltonian. The conductance at zero temperature develops an oscillating band with resonances and antiresonances due to constructive and destructive interference in the ballistic channel, respectively. Moreover, we have fo...
