We observed slow relaxation of magnetoresistance in quantum well structures GaAs-AlGaAs with a selective doping of both wells and barrier regions which allowed partial filling of the upper Hubbard band. Such a behavior is explained as related to magnetic-field driven redistribution of the carriers between sites with different occupation numbers due to spin correlation on the doubly occupied centers. This redistribution, in its turn, leads to slow multi-particle relaxations in the Coulomb glass formed by the charged centers.

By selective doping (Be) of the well and barrier regions of p-GaAs/AlGaAs structures we have realized the situation where the upper Hubbard band (A+ centers) has been occupied by holes in the equilibrium. We studied temperature behavior of the Hall e
ffect, variable range hopping conductivity and the photoluminescence spectra of the corresponding structures. The experimental data demonstrated that the binding energy of the A+ states significantly increases with respect to 3D case and strongly depends on well width (9nm,15nm). The localization radii of the A+ states are of the order of well widths.
Experimental and theoretical studies on transport in semiconductor samples with superconducting electrodes are reported. We focus on the samples close to metal-insulator transition. In metallic samples, a peak of negative magnetoresistance at fields
lower than critical magnetic field of the leads was observed. This peak is attributed to restoration of a single-particle tunneling emerging with suppression of superconductivity. The experimental results allow us to estimate tunneling transparency of the boundary between superconductor and metal. In contrast, for the insulating samples no such a peak was observed. We explain this behavior as related to properties of transport through the contact between superconductor and hopping conductor. This effect can be used to discriminate between weak localization and strong localization regimes.
In highly doped uncompensated p-type layers within the central part of GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells at low temperatures we observed an activated behavior of the conductivity with low activation energies (1-3) meV which can not be ascribed to standard me
chanisms. We attribute this behavior to the delocalization of hole states near the maximum of the narrow impurity band in the sense of the Anderson transition. Low temperature conduction $epsilon_4$ is supported by an activation of minority carriers - electrons (resulting from a weak compensation by back-ground defects) - from the Fermi level to the band of delocalized states mentioned above. The corresponding behavior can be specified as virtual Anderson transition. Low temperature transport ($<4$ K) exhibits also strong nonlinearity of a breakdown type characterized in particular by S-shaped I-V curve. The nonlinearity is observed in unexpectedly low fields ($<10$ V/cm). Such a behavior can be explained by a simple model implying an impact ionization of the localized states of the minority carriers mentioned above to the band of Anderson-delocalized states.
We report experimental studies of conductance and magnetoconductance of GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well structures where both wells and barriers are doped by acceptor impurity Be. Temperature dependence of conductance demonstrate a non-monotonic behavior at
temperatures around 100 K. At small temperatures (less than 10 K) we observed strong negative magnetoresistance at moderate magnetic field which crossed over to positive magnetoresistance at very strong magnetic fields and was completely suppressed with an increase of temperature. We ascribe these unusual features to effects of temperature and magnetic field on a degree of disorder. The temperature dependent disorder is related to charge redistribution between different localized states with an increase of temperature. The magnetic field dependent disorder is also related by charge redistribution between different centers, however in this case an important role is played by the doubly occupied states of the upper Hubbard band, their occupation being sensitive to magnetic field due to on-site spin correlations. The detailed theoretical model is present.
We observed a slow relaxation of magnetoresistance in response to applied magnetic field in selectively doped p-GaAs-AlGaAs structures with partially filled upper Hubbard band. We have paid a special attention to exclude the effects related to temper
ature fluctuations. Though this effect is important, we have found that the general features of slow relaxation still persist. This behavior is interpreted as related to the properties of the Coulomb glass formed by charged centers with account of spin correlations, which are sensitive to an external magnetic field. Variation of the magnetic field changes numbers of impurity complexes of different types. As a result, it effects the shape and depth of the polaron gap formed at the states belonging to the percolation cluster responsible for the conductance. The suggested model explains both the qualitative behavior and the order of magnitude of the slowly relaxing magnetoresistance.
