Two aspects should be taken into account: (i) insulating phases between quantum Hall phases are possible owing to the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations of the \"bare\" diagonal resistivity $\\rho _{xx}^{0}$; (ii) according to the two-parameter scaling theory, the filling factor $\\nu$ does not determine directly the positions of the quantum Hall phases on the magnetic field axis at $\\omega_{c}\\tau \\lesssim 1$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-12-05T15:50:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "insulating phases", "p-sige heterostructures", "quantum hall phases", "transitions", "magnetic field axis" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 2, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002cond.mat.12111M" } } }
