Positive magnetoresistance (PMR) of a silicon MOSFET in parallel magnetic fields B has been measured at high electron densities n >> n_c where n_c is the critical density of the metal-insulator transition (MIT). It turns out that the normalized PMR curves, R(B)/R(0), merge together when the field is scaled according to B/B_c(n) where B_c is the field in which electrons become fully spin polarized. The values of B_c have been calculated from the simple equality between the Zeeman splitting energy and the Fermi energy taking into account the experimentally measured dependence of the spin susceptibility on the electron density. This extends the range of validity of the scaling all the way to a deeply metallic regime far away from MIT. The subsequent analysis of PMR for low n >~ n_c demonstrated that the merging of the initial parts of curves can bee achieved only with taking into account the temperature dependence of B_c. It is also shown that the shape of the PMR curves at strong magnetic fields is affected by a crossover from a purely two-dimensional (2D) electron transport to a regime where out-of-plane carrier motion becomes important (quasi-three-dimensional regime).
We report the observation of a metal-insulator transition in a two-dimensional electron gas in silicon. By applying substrate bias, we have varied the mobility of our samples, and observed the creation of the metallic phase when the mobility was high
We argue that the magnetic susceptibility data, Refs. 1-3, for the low-density two-dimensional (2D) silicon-based electron gas indicate that magnetically active electrons are localised in spin-droplets. The droplets exist in both the insulating and m
Two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) in SrTiO$_3$ have become model systems for engineering emergent behaviour in complex transition metal oxides. Understanding the collective interactions that enable this, however, has thus far proved elusive. Her
The interaction between a single hole and a two-dimensional, paramagnetic, homogeneous electron gas is studied using diffusion quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Calculations of the electron-hole correlation energy, pair-correlation function, and the e
We demonstrate the formation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the $(100)$ surface of the $5d$ transition-metal oxide KTaO$_3$. From angle-resolved photoemission, we find that quantum confinement lifts the orbital degeneracy of the bulk ban
