摘要: We study experimentally the reproducible conductance fluctuations between quantum Hall plateaus in of two-terminal submicrometer silicon MOSFET’s. For dramatic at insulator-to-first-plateau transition we find a distribution that is approximately uniform zero and e 2 /h. point out this consistent with prediction random S-matrix theory for conductor single-channel leads magnetic field. @S0163-1829~96!51948-X#
