Disappearance of Integer Quantum Hall Effect
نویسندگان
چکیده
The disappearance of integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE) at strong disorder and weak magnetic field is studied in a lattice model. A generic sequence by which the IQHE plateaus disappear is revealed: higher IQHE plateaus always vanish earlier than lower ones, and extended levels between those plateaus do not float up in energy but keep merging together after the destruction of plateaus. All of these features remain to be true in the weak-field limit as shown by the thermodynamic localizationlength calculation. Topological characterization in terms of Chern integers provides a simple physical explanation and suggests a qualitative difference between the lattice and continuum models. [S0031-9007(96)02207-7]

In this paper we study the integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE) on the systems with different types of impurities in delta and gaussian forms. The Landau energy levels in the presence of impurity split in two different levels,the extended and localized levels, emerging then the Hall step. Finally, we add a specified form of a quantum dot potential to a system with impurity, and observed that incr...

We have studied a practical approach for the inclusion of non-isotropic impurities in the systems showing integer quantum Hall effect. We observe that if the impurity distribution in the direction which the electric field applys, then the localized levels goes out from the origin with respect to the isotropic case, and the Hall step will the clearly observed.
متن کاملScaling in the Integer Quantum Hall Effect: interactions and low magnetic fields
Recent developments in the scaling theory of the integer quantum Hall effect are discussed. In particular, the influence of electron-electron interactions on the critical behavior are studied. It is further argued that recent experiments on the disappearance of the quantum Hall effect at low magnetic fields support rather than disprove the scaling theory , when interpreted properly. While the r...
متن کاملPeak Values of Conductivity in Integer and Fractional Quantum Hall Effect
The diagonal conductivity usr was measured in the Corbino geometry in both integer and fractional quantum Hall effect (QHE). We find that peak values of g=.+ are approximately equal for transitions in a wide range of integer filling factors 3 < v < 16, as expected in scaling theories of QHE. This fact allows us to compare peak values in the integer and fractional regimes within the framework of...
