A metal-insulator transition in two-dimensional electron gases at B=0 is found in Ga(Al)As heterostructures, where a high density of self-assembled InAs quantum dots is incorporated just 3 nm below the heterointerface. The transition occurs at resistances around h/e^2 and critical carrier densities of 1.2 10^11cm^-2. Effects of electron-electron interactions are expected to be rather weak in our samples, while disorder plays a crucial role.

We study the transport properties of the two-dimensional electron gas in AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures in parallel to the interface magnetic fields at low temperatures. The magnetoresistance in the metallic phase is found to be positive and weakly ani
sotropic with respect to the orientation of the in-plane magnetic field and the current through the sample. At low electron densities ($n_s< 5times 10^{10}$ cm$^{-2}$) the experimental data can be described adequately within spin-related approach while at high $n_s$ the magnetoresistance mechanism changes as inferred from $n_s$-independence of the normalized magnetoresistance.
We study the spin dynamics in a high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas confined in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well. An unusual magnetic field dependence of the spin relaxation is found: as the magnetic field becomes stronger, the spin relaxation time
first increases quadratically but then changes to a linear dependence, before it eventually becomes oscillatory, whereby the longitudinal and transverse times reach maximal values at even and odd filling Landau level factors, respectively. We show that the suppression of spin relaxation is due to the effect of electron gyration on the spin-orbit field, while the oscillations correspond to oscillations of the density of states appearing at low temperatures and high magnetic fields. The transition from quadratic to linear dependence can be related to a transition from classical to Bohm diffusion and reflects an anomalous behavior of the two-dimensional electron gas analogous to that observed in magnetized plasmas.
We introduce an elementary model for the electrostatic self-consistent potential in a two-dimensional electron gas. By considering the perpendicular degree of freedom arising from the electron tunneling out of the system plane, we predict a threshold
carrier density above which this effect is relevant. The predicted value agrees remarkably well with the onset for the insulator to quasi-metallic transition recently observed in several experiments in SiO2-Si and AlGaAs-GaAs heterojunctions.
We investigated the spin dynamics of two-dimensional electrons in (001) GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure using the time resolved Kerr rotation technique under a transverse magnetic field. The in-plane spin lifetime is found to be anisotropic below 150k du
e to the interference of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling and Dyakonov-Perel spin relaxation. The ratio of in-plane spin lifetimes is measured directly as a function of temperature and pump power, showing that the electron density in 2DEG channel strongly affects the Rashba spin-orbit coupling.
We compute the single-particle states of a two-dimensional electron gas confined to the surface of a cylinder immersed in a magnetic field. The envelope-function equation has been solved exactly for both an homogeneous and a periodically modulated ma
gnetic field perpendicular to the cylinder axis. The nature and energy dispersion of the quantum states reflects the interplay between different lengthscales, namely, the cylinder diameter, the magnetic length, and, possibly, the wavelength of the field modulation. We show that a transverse homogeneous magnetic field drives carrier states from a quasi-2D (cylindrical) regime to a quasi-1D regime where carriers form channels along the cylinder surface. Furthermore, a magnetic field which is periodically modulated along the cylinder axis may confine the carriers to tunnel-coupled stripes, rings or dots on the cylinder surface, depending on the ratio between the the field periodicity and the cylinder radius. Results in different regimes are traced to either incipient Landau levels formation or Aharonov-Bohm behaviour.
