Magnetotransport in an aluminum thin film on a GaAs substrate grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Magnetotransport measurements are performed on an aluminum thin film grown on a GaAs substrate. A crossover from electron- to hole-dominant transport can be inferred from both longitudinal resistivity and Hall resistivity with increasing the perpendicular magnetic field B. Also, phenomena of localiz...
