In ultra-high quality two-dimensional (2D) materials the mean free paths of phonons and electrons relative to all mechanisms of scattering can be much greater than a size of a sample. In this case the most intensive type of scattering of particles is their collisions with sample edges and the ballistic regime of heat and charge transport is realized. We study the ballistic transport of classical interacting 2D particles in a long narrow sample. We show that the inter-particle scattering conserving momentum leads to a positive hydrodynamic correction to the ballistic conductance, which is a precursor of the viscous Poiseuille flow. We examine the effect of weak magnetic field on the electron ballistic conductance and predict a novel classical ballistic mechanism for negative magnetoresistance. Our analysis demonstrates that, apparently, such mechanism explains the temperature-independent part of the giant negative magnetoresistance recently observed in the ultra-high mobility GaAs quantum wells.

We report experimental observations of a novel magnetoresistance (MR) behavior of two-dimensional electron systems in perpendicular magnetic field in the ballistic regime, for k_BTtau/hbar>1. The MR grows with field and exhibits a maximum at fields B >1/mu, where mu is the electron mobility. As temperature increases the magnitude of the maximum grows and its position moves to higher fields. This effect is universal: it is observed in various Si- and GaAs- based two-dimensional electron systems. We compared our data with recent theory based on the Kohn anomaly modification in magnetic field, and found qualitative similarities and discrepancies.

At low temperatures, in very clean two-dimensional (2D) samples the electron mean free path for collisions with static defects and phonons becomes greater than the sample width. Under this condition, the electron transport occurs by formation of a vi scous flow of an electron fluid. We study the viscous flow of 2D electrons in a magnetic field perpendicular to the 2D layer. We calculate the viscosity coefficients as the functions of magnetic field and temperature. The off-diagonal viscosity coefficient determines the dispersion of the 2D hydrodynamic waves. The decrease of the diagonal viscosity in magnetic field leads to negative magnetoresistance which is temperature- and size dependent. Our analysis demonstrates that the viscous mechanism is responsible for the giant negative magnetoresistance recently observed in the ultra-high-mobility GaAs quantum wells. We conclude that 2D electrons in that structures in moderate magnetic fields should be treated as a viscous fluid.

On a high mobility two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) in a GaAs/GaAlAs heterostructure we study the interaction correction to the Drude conductivity in the ballistic regime, $k_BTtau /hbar $ $>1$. It is shown that the metallic behaviour of the resistivi ty ($drho /dT>0$) of the low-density 2DHG is caused by hole-hole interaction effect in this regime. We find that the temperature dependence of the conductivity and the parallel-field magnetoresistance are in agreement with this description, and determine the Fermi-liquid interaction constant $F_0^sigma $ which controls the sign of $drho /dT$.
We report the observation of commensurability oscillations in an AlAs two-dimensional electron system where two conduction-band valleys with elliptical in-plane Fermi contours are occupied. The Fourier power spectrum of the oscillations shows two fre quency components consistent with those expected for the Fermi contours of the two valleys. From an analysis of the spectra we deduce $m_l/m_t=5.2pm0.5$ for the ratio of the longitudinal and transverse electron effective masses.
In an idealized infinite crystal, the material properties are constrained by the symmetries of its unit cell. Naturally, the point-group symmetry is broken by the sample shape of any finite crystal, yet this is commonly unobservable in macroscopic me tals. To sense the shape-induced symmetry lowering in such metals, long-lived bulk states originating from anisotropic Fermi surfaces are needed. Here we show how strongly facetted Fermi surfaces and long quasiparticle mean free paths present in microstructures of PdCoO2 yield an in-plane resistivity anisotropy that is forbidden by symmetry on an infinite hexagonal lattice. Bar shaped transport devices narrower than the mean free path are carved from single crystals using focused ion beam (FIB) milling, such that the ballistic charge carriers at low temperatures frequently collide with both sidewalls defining a channel. Two symmetry-forbidden transport signatures appear: the in-plane resistivity anisotropy exceeds a factor of 2, and transverse voltages appear in zero magnetic field. We robustly identify the channel direction as the source of symmetry breaking via ballistic Monte- Carlo simulations and numerical solution of the Boltzmann equation.
