Abstract:Spatially localized electronic states in a two-dimensional electron gas in the quantum Hall regime are imaged using a scanning single-electron-transistor probe. Two di erent regimes of localization are identiÿed depending on the strength of the built-in long-range density uctuations. In the smoother regions localized states merge into dielectric-like blobs a few m in extent. In the places with a stronger density gradient complex patterns occur which change markedly with an addition of a single electron. The si… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
