The nature of critical phenomena of the scaling theory of quantum Hall transitions in two-dimensional electron systems

The nature of the transitions that occur between the quantized plateaux observed in the quantum Hall effect (QHE) have been classified as second order quantum phase transitions. These transitions occur between the localized and the extended states found within a Landau level band of energies. The th...
