Quantum Spin Liquids and the Metal-Insulator Transition in Doped Semiconductors

We describe a new possible route to the metal-insulator transition in doped semiconductors such as Si:P or Si:B. We explore the possibility that the loss of metallic transport occurs through Mott localization of electrons into a quantum spin liquid state with diffusive charge neutral “spinon” excita...
