摘要
We report observations of an electric-field threshold conduction and of related ac voltage (broad-band noise) generation in low-disorder two-dimensioanl electron systems in the extreme magnetic quantum limit. We interpret these phenomena as definitive evidence for formation of a pinned quantum Wigner crystal and determine its melting phase diagram from the disappearance of threshold and noise behavior at higher temperatures. © 1990 The American Physical Society.
