Hopping Conductivity in Disordered Systems

Ambegaokar, Vinay, Halperin, B. I., Langer, J. S.·1971·Physical Review B

Abstract

By considering a model in which charge is transported via phonon-induced tunneling of electrons between localized states which are randomly distributed in energy and position, Mott has obtained an electrical conductivity of the form $\ensuremath{\sigma}\ensuremath{\propto}\mathrm{exp}[\ensuremath{-}{(\frac{\ensuremath{\lambda}{\ensuremath{\alpha}}^{3}}{{\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}\mathrm{kT}})}^{\frac{1}{4}}]$. Here $T$ is the temperature of the system, ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}$ is the density of states at the Fermi level, $\ensuremath{\lambda}$ is a dimensionless constant, and ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ is the distance for exponential decay of the wave functions. We rederive these results, relating $\ensuremath{\lambda}$ to the critical density of a certain dimensionless percolation problem, and we estimate $\ensuremath{\lambda}$ to be approximately 16. The applicability of the model to experimental observations on amorphous Ge, Si, and C is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
