Abstract

Experiments on a constant-density two-dimensional hole system in a GaAs quantum well reveal that the metallic behavior observed in the zero-magnetic-field temperature dependence of the resistivity depends on the symmetry of the confinement potential and the resulting spin-splitting of the valence band.
