Universal conductance distribution in three dimensional systems in high magnetic fields

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The nature of the critical point of the Anderson transition in high magnetic fields is discussed with an emphasis on scale invariance and universality of the critical exponent. Special attention is paid to the distribution function of the conductance which becomes size and model independent at the critical point. The fractal properties of the wave function which are related to scale invariance are also discussed.
