The results show that the spin Hall conductance remains finite in a wide range of disorder strength, with large fluctuations. The disorder-configuration-averaged spin Hall conductance monotonically decreases with the increase of disorder strength and vanishes before the Anderson localization takes place. The finite-size effect is also discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2005-07-28T03:26:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "luttinger model", "numerical study", "hall conductance monotonically decreases", "spin hall conductance remains finite" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
