Quantum Scaling for the Metal-Insulator Transition in a Two-Dimensional Electron System
Offered By: PCS Institute for Basic Science via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a comprehensive lecture on quantum scaling for the metal-insulator transition in two-dimensional electron systems. Delve into the Gaussian approximation approach used to describe the quantum phase transition observed in seminal experimental studies. Understand the universal critical exponent value of 3/2 and its relation to the correlation length divergence as electron density approaches the critical point. Examine numerical evidence supporting the previously unexplored exponential temperature dependence of metallic phase resistivities. Analyze the phase diagram on the density-temperature plane, focusing on the quantum phase transition and two crossover lines. Gain insights into advanced concepts in condensed matter physics and quantum mechanics through this in-depth presentation by Victor Kagalovsky from the PCS Institute for Basic Science.
