摘要
Spin-orbit interaction in InGaAs/InAlAs quantum wires is investigated by measuring conductance fluctuations at temperatures ranging from 2 K down to 0.06 K. The resistance of an InGaAs/InAlAs wire in a zero magnetic field decreases as the temperature decreases below 1.6 K. This temperature dependence is reproduced by the theory of antilocalization in the strong spin-orbit interaction regime. In the same temperature range, the conductance fluctuation amplitude increases nonmonotonically with decreasing temperature. This behavior is attributed to the temperature-induced transition from the weak to the strong spin-orbit scattering regime in the mesoscopic disordered system.
