Numerical Study of Inelastic Scatterings by Time-Dependent Random Potentials in Two-Dimensional Systems

Abstract

Diffusion of electrons in a two-dimensional system with time-dependent random potentials is investigated numerically. In the absence of spin-orbit scattering, the conductivity shows universal weak localization correction. In the presence of it, however, the correction to the conductivity weakly depends on the strength of disorder, and becomes vanishingly small close to the metal-insulator transition point.
