Abstract:We report the observation of a metal-insulator transition in zero magnetic eld in a two dimensional electron gas under the in uence of a plane of InAs self-assembled quantum dots located at 30 A below the AlGaAs GaAs heterointerface. The transition is observed as a function of temperature and electric eld at B=0. A scaling analysis yields exponents similar to those obtained for Si MOSFET's . We suggest that the disorder introduced by the quantum dots plays a crucial role.
