At charge densities near the charge-neutrality point rho_xx(H) is strongly enhanced and rho_xy(H) is suppressed, indicating nearly equal electron and hole contributions to the transport current. The data are inconsistent with uniformly distributed electron and hole concentrations (two-fluid model) but in excellent agreement with the recent theoretical prediction for inhomogeneously distributed electron and hole regions of equal mobility. At low temperatures and high magnetic fields rho_xx(H) saturates to a value ~h/e^2, with Hall conductivity << e^2/h, which may indicate a regime of localized v = 2 and v = -2 quantum Hall puddles.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-05-22T21:08:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.63.-b", "73.43.Qt", "81.05.Uw" ], "keywords": [ "charge neutrality point", "charge transport", "inhomogeneity", "silicon dioxide substrates", "temperature" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2008, "month": "Feb", "volume": 77, "number": 8, "pages": "081402" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008PhRvB..77h1402C" } } }
