Abstract
Abstract Phase diagrams of the metal-insulator transition in 2D disordered systems with spin-orbit coupling have been calculated at zero temperature. The transition is shown to occur for an arbitrarily weak spin-orbit coupling, and in contrast to the 3D orthogonal case, does not exhibit any reentrant behavior. The magnetoconductance is investigated both in the conducting and in the insulating phase. At the transition, a minimum metallic conductivity exists, the value of which cannot be accounted for by classical transport theory.
