摘要
We present magnetotransport results for a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) subject to the quasirandom magnetic field produced by randomly positioned submicron Co dots deposited onto the surface of a GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs heterostructure. We observe strong local and nonlocal anisotropic magnetoresistance for external magnetic fields in the plane of the 2DEG. Monte Carlo calculations confirm that this is due to the changing topology of the quasirandom magnetic field in which electrons are guided predominantly along contours of zero magnetic field.
