Conductance Fluctuations in PbTe Wide Parabolic Quantum Wells

Materials Science 2009-10-30 v1 Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics

Abstract

We report on conductance fluctuations which are observed in local and non-local magnetotransport experiments. Although the Hall bar samples are of macroscopic size, the amplitude of the fluctuations from the local measurements is close to e^2/h. It is shown that the fluctuations have to be attributed to edge channel effects.
