Metal–Insulator Transition in Three-Dimensional Semiconductors
We use a random gap model to describe a metal−insulator transition in three-dimensional semiconductors due to doping, and find a conventional phase transition, where the effective scattering rate is the order parameter. Spontaneous symmetry breaking results in metallic behavior, whereas th...
