The intragrain charging energy leads to insulating behavior at low temperatures, with a well defined Coulomb gap. Non equilibrium effects can give rise to a zero temperature transition between a metallic, gapless phase, and an insulating phase.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-11-29T19:36:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "coulomb blockade regime", "non equilibrium effects", "zero temperature transition", "disordered granular systems", "low temperatures" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
