Meta-Percolation and Metal-Insulator Transition in Two Dimensions
Junren Shi, Song He, X. C. Xie
Abstract
According to the scaling theory of localization, all quantum electronic states are localized in two-dimensional (2D) systems. One consequence of the theory is that there is no quantum percolation transition in 2D. However, in a real system at a finite temperature, electron phase coherent length is finite and the system is between quantum and classical. We find, in such a 2D system, a metal-insulator transition (MIT) caused by a novel type of percolation, meta-percolation. The relevance to recently observed 2D MIT is also discussed.
