We studied the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations in high-mobility Si-MOS samples over a wide range of carrier densities $n\simeq (1-50) \times 10^{11}$cm$^{-2}$, which includes the vicinity of the apparent metal-insulator transition in…
We report temperature and density dependences of the spin susceptibility of strongly interacting electrons in Si inversion layers. We measured (i) the itinerant electron susceptibility $\chi^*$ from the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in…
We have studied Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in a two-dimensional electron system in silicon at low electron densities. Near the metal-insulator transition, only "spin" minima of the resistance at Landau-level filling factors 2, 6, 10,…
For the two-dimensional electron system in silicon MOSFET's, the scaled magnetoconductivity has been shown to exhibit critical behavior at finite density $n_0$. Analysis of these magnetotransport experiments yields a product $g^*m^*$ that…
We have found that the conduction in Si-MOS structures has a substantial imaginary component in the metallic phase for the density range 6 \times n_c > n > n_c, where n_c is the critical density of the metal-insulator transition. For high…
We report the observation of prominent Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in a Topological Insulator, Bi$_2$Te$_2$Se, with large bulk resistivity (6 $\Omega$cm at 4 K). By fitting the SdH oscillations, we infer a large metallicity parameter…
We present an experimental study of electron transport in inversion layers of high-mobility Si(001) samples with occupied excited subbands. The second series of oscillations, observed in addition to the main series of Shubnikov-de Hass…
The resistivities of the dilute, strongly-interacting 2D electron systems in the insulating phase of a silicon MOSFET are the same for unpolarized electrons in the absence of magnetic field and for electrons that are fully spin polarized by…
Metallic iridium oxides (iridates) provide a fertile playground to explore new phenomena resulting from the interplay between topological protection, spin-orbit and electron-electron interactions. To date, however, few studies of the low…
In a recent Letter, Kravchenko et al. [cond-mat/9608101] have provided evidence for a metal-insulator transition (MIT) in a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) in Si metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). The…
We examine the metal-insulator transition in a half-filled Hubbard model of electrons with random and all-to-all hopping and exchange, and an on-site non-random repulsion, the Hubbard $U$. We argue that recent numerical results of Cha et…
The apparent metal-insulator transition is observed in a high quality two-dimensional electron system (2DES) in the strained Si quantum well of a Si/Si_{1-x}Ge_x heterostructure with mobility \mu=1.9 x 10^5 cm^2/Vs at density n=1.45 x…
We have studied an electron transport in inversion layers of high-mobility Si(100) samples. At high electron concentrations and temperatures below 4.2 K, two series of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations have been observed. The temperature…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) is an exceptional test bed for studying strong electron correlations in two dimensions in the presence of disorder. In the present study, it is found that in contrast to previous experiments on…
Recent experiments in the two dimensional electron systems in silicon MOSFETs have shown that the in-plane magnetic field $H_{sat}$ required to saturate the conductivity to its high-field value and the magnetic field $H_s$ needed to…
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors. Measurements at many different angles spanning a broad range of electron densities indicate that the observed doubling of the period of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, which we had attributed to…
We have observed a metal-insulator transition in an ultra-low density two dimensional hole gas formed in a high quality GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructure at B=0. At the highest carrier density studied ($p_{s}=2.2x10^{10} cm^{-2}, r_{s}=16$) the…
Metal-insulator transitions in clean, crystalline solids can be driven by two distinct mechanisms. In a conventional insulator, the charge carrier concentration vanishes, when an energy gap separates filled and unfilled electronic states.…
Multilayer (TiO$_2$)$_m$/(VO$_2$)$_n$ nanostructures ($d^1$ - $d^0$ interfaces with no polar discontinuity) show a metal-insulator transition with respect to the VO$_2$ layer thickness in first principles calculations. For $n$ $\geq$ 5…
The in-plane magnetoconductance of the strongly interacting two-dimensional electron system in a silicon MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor-field-effect transistor) exhibits an unmistakeable kink at a well-defined electron density, $n_k$.…
