Magnetoresistance in high-density two-dimensional electron gas confined in InAIAs/lnGaAs quantum well

摘要

We study the magnetoresistance of a high-density two-dimensional electron gas confined in an InAlAs/InGaAs quantum well and observe a parabolic negative magnetoresistivity at moderate field. This negative magnetoresistivity is induced by electron-electron interactions. The interaction correction to the Drude conductance is extracted from the negative magnetoresistivity. However, due to inhomogeneity in the electron density, there is a contribution of positive magnetoresistivity, which induces the larger extracted correction than anticipated.
