A new reentrant insulating phase (RIP) in low magnetic fields has been reported in the literature in strongly interacting 2D carrier systems and was suggested to be related to the formation of a Wigner crystal [e.g. Qiu et al, PRL 108, 106404 (2012)]. We have studied the transformation between the metallic liquid phase and the low field RIP in a dilute 2D hole system with large interaction parameter $r_s$ (~20-30) in GaAs quantum wells. Instead of a sharp transition, increasing density (or lowering $r_s$) drives the RIP into a state where an incipient RIP coexists with the metallic 2D hole liquid. The non-trivial temperature dependent resistivity and the in-plane magnetic field induced enhancement of the RIP highlight the competition between two phases and the essential role of spin in this mixture phase, and are consistent with the Pomeranchuk effect in a mixture of Wigner crystal and Fermi liquid.

We have measured the resistance and the 1/f resistance noise of a two-dimensional low density hole system in a high mobility GaAs quantum well at low temperature. At densities lower than the metal-insulator transition one, the temperature dependence
of the resistance is either power-like or simply activated. The noise decreases when the temperature or the density increase. These results contradict the standard description of independent particles in the strong localization regime. On the contrary, they agree with the percolation picture suggested by higher density results. The physical nature of the system could be a mixture of a conducting and an insulating phase. We compare our results with those of composite thin films.
We report the temperature($T$) and perpendicular magnetic field($B$) dependence of the Hall resistivity $rho_{xy}(B)$ of dilute metallic two-dimensional(2D) holes in GaAs over a broad range of temperature(0.02-1.25K). The low $B$ Hall coefficient, $R
_H$, is found to be enhanced when $T$ decreases. Strong magnetic fields further enhance the slope of $rho_{xy}(B)$ at all temperatures studied. Coulomb interaction corrections of a Fermi liquid(FL) in the ballistic regime can not explain the enhancement of $rho_{xy}$ which occurs in the same regime as the anomalous metallic longitudinal conductivity. In particular, although the metallic conductivity in 2D systems has been attributed to electron interactions in a FL, these same interactions should reduce, {it not enhance} the slope of $rho_{xy}(B)$ as $T$ decreases and/or $B$ increases.
We have measured the resistance noise of a two-dimensional (2D)hole system in a high mobility GaAs quantum well, around the 2D metal-insulator transition (MIT) at zero magnetic field. The normalized noise power $S_R/R^2$ increases strongly when the h
ole density p_s is decreased, increases slightly with temperature (T) at the largest densities, and decreases strongly with T at low p_s. The noise scales with the resistance, $S_R/R^2 sim R^{2.4}$, as for a second order phase transition such as a percolation transition. The p_s dependence of the conductivity is consistent with a critical behavior for such a transition, near a density p* which is lower than the observed MIT critical density p_c.
Fermi liquid theory has been a foundation in understanding the electronic properties of materials. For weakly interacting two-dimensional (2D) electron or hole systems, electron-electron interactions are known to introduce quantum corrections to the
Drude conductivity in the FL theory, giving rise to temperature dependent conductivity and magneto-resistance. Here we study the magneto-transport in a strongly interacting 2D hole system over a broad range of temperatures ($T$ = 0.09 to $>$1K) and densities $p=1.98-0.99times10^{10}$ cm$^{-2}$ where the ratio between Coulomb energy and Fermi energy $r_s$ = 20 - 30. We show that while the system exhibits a negative parabolic magneto-resistance at low temperatures ($lesssim$ 0.4K) characteristic of an interacting FL, the FL interaction corrections represent an insignificant fraction of the total conductivity. Surprisingly, a positive magneto-resistance emerges at high temperatures and grows with increasing temperature even in the regime $T sim E_F$, close to the Fermi temperature. This unusual positive magneto-resistance at high temperatures is attributed to the collective viscous transport of 2D hole fluid in the hydrodynamic regime where holes scatter frequently with each other. These findings highlight the collective transport in a strongly interacting 2D system in the $r_sgg 1$ regime and the hydrodynamic transport induced magneto-resistance opens up possibilities to new routes of magneto-resistance at high temperatures.
The interplay of strong Coulomb interactions and of topology is currently under intense scrutiny in various condensed matter and atomic systems. One example of this interplay is the phase competition of fractional quantum Hall states and the Wigner s
olid in the two-dimensional electron gas. Here we report a Wigner solid at $ u=1.79$ and its melting due to fractional correlations occurring at $ u=9/5$. This Wigner solid, that we call the reentrant integer quantum Hall Wigner solid, develops in a range of Landau level filling factors that is related by particle-hole symmetry to the so called reentrant Wigner solid. We thus find that the Wigner solid in the GaAs/AlGaAs system straddles the partial filling factor $1/5$ not only at the lowest filling factors, but also near $ u=9/5$. Our results highlight the particle-hole symmetry as a fundamental symmetry of the extended family of Wigner solids and paint a complex picture of the competition of the Wigner solid with fractional quantum Hall states.
