Numerical Study of the Localization Length Critical Index in a Network Model of Plateau-Plateau Transitions in the Quantum Hall Effect

Abstract: We calculate numerically the localization length critical index within the Chalker-Coddington model of the plateau-plateau transitions in the quantum Hall effect. We report a finite-size scaling analysis using both the traditional power-law corrections to the scaling function and the inverse logarithmic ones, which provided a more stable fit resulting in the localization length critical index ¼ 2:616 AE 0:014. We observe an increase of the critical exponent with the system size, which is possibly the origin of… Show more

“…40 The regular geometry of the CC model allows one to apply numerical transfer matrix techniques. 41,42 Recent implementations of this [43][44][45][46][47][48] and other methods 49,50 agree on the value ν in the range 2.56-2.62, certainly different from ν exp . The discrepancy points to the importance of the long-range electron-electron interaction, which certainly affects the scaling near the integer QH transition [51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58] and is relevant for the interpretation of experiments.…”

“…[5] and references therein). Recently, more accurate calculations yielded γ ≈ 2.6 for the noninteracting critical point [5][6][7]. The experimentally measured values for the PPT exponents in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) read κ = 0.42, p = 2, and γ = 2.38 [8,9].…”

“…The nature of the critical state at and the critical phenomena near the IQH transition are at the focus of intense experimental [8][9][10][11][12][13] and theoretical research. [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] In spite of much effort over several decades, an analytical treatment of most of the critical conducting states in disordered electronic systems, including in particular that of the mentioned IQH transition, has been elusive (although some proposals [14][15][16] have been put forward, but see Refs. 18 and 19).…”
