We study spectral statistics of one-dimensional quasi-periodic systems at the metal-insulator transition. Several types of spectral statistics are observed at the critical points, lines, and region. On the critical lines, we find the bandwidth distribution $P_B(w)$ around the origin (in the tail) to have the form of $P_B(w) sim w^{alpha}$ ($P_B(w) sim e^{-beta w^{gamma}}$) ($alpha, beta, gamma > 0 $), while in the critical region $P_B(w) sim w^{-alpha}$ ($alpha > 0$). We also find the level spacing distribution to follow an inverse power law $P_G(s) sim s^{- delta}$ ($delta > 0$)

The quasi-one-dimensional linear chain compound HfTe3 is experimentally and theoretically explored in the few- to single-chain limit. Confining the material within the hollow core of carbon nanotubes allows isolation of the chains and prevents the ra pid oxidation which plagues even bulk HfTe3. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy combined with density functional theory calculations reveals that, once the triple-chain limit is reached, the normally parallel chains spiral about each other, and simultaneously a short-wavelength trigonal anti-prismatic rocking distortion occurs that opens a significant energy gap. This results in a size-driven metal-insulator transition.

Experimental evidence for the possible universality classes of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in two dimensions (2D) is discussed. Sufficiently strong disorder, in particular, changes the nature of the transition. Comprehensive studies of the c harge dynamics are also reviewed, describing evidence that the MIT in a 2D electron system in silicon should be viewed as the melting of the Coulomb glass. Comparisons are made to recent results on novel 2D materials and quasi-2D strongly correlated systems, such as cuprates.
We explore the scaling description for a two-dimensional metal-insulator transition (MIT) of electrons in silicon. Near the MIT, $beta_{T}/p = (-1/p)d(ln g)/d(ln T)$ is universal (with $p$, a sample dependent exponent, determined separately; $g$--con ductance, $T$--temperature). We obtain the characteristic temperatures $T_0$ and $T_1$ demarking respectively the quantum critical region and the regime of validity of single parameter scaling in the metallic phase, and show that $T_1$ vanishes as the transition is approached. For $T<T_1$, the scaling of the data requires a second parameter. Moreover, all of the data can be described with two-parameter scaling at all densities -- even far from the transition.
Effects of non-magnetic disorder on the critical temperature T_c and on diamagnetism of quasi-one-dimensional superconductors are reported. The energy of Josephson-coupling between wires is considered to be random, which is typical for dirty organic superconductors. We show that this randomness destroys phase coherence between wires and that T_c vanishes discontinuously at a critical disorder-strength. The parallel and transverse components of the penetration-depth are evaluated. They diverge at different critical temperatures T_c^{(1)} and T_c, which correspond to pair-breaking and phase-coherence breaking respectively. The interplay between disorder and quantum phase fluctuations is shown to result in quantum critical behavior at T=0, which manifests itself as a superconducting-normal metal phase transition of first-order at a critical disorder strength.
We perform combined resistivity and compressibility studies of two-dimensional hole and electron systems which show the apparent metal-insulator transition - a crossover in the sign of dR/dT with changing density. No thermodynamic anomalies have been detected in the crossover region. Instead, despite a ten-fold difference in r_s, the compressibility of both electrons and holes is well described by the theory of nonlinear screening of the random potential. We show that the resistivity exhibits a scaling behavior near the percolation threshold found from analysis of the compressibility. Notably, the percolation transition occurs at a much lower density than the crossover.
