The Hall resistance R_xy of the thinnest sample reveals a wide plateau at small activation energy E_a=0.4 K found in the temperature dependence of the transverse resistance R_xx. The different minima in the transverse conductance G_xx of the different samples show a universal temperature dependence (logarithmic in a large range of rescaled temperatures T/T_0) which is reminiscent of electron-electron-interaction effects in coherent diffusive transport.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-10-19T13:18:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum hall effect", "disordered gaas layers", "electron-electron interaction", "3d spectrum", "temperature dependence" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
