Abstract
A single device which can evolve between two distinctly different geom etries is desirable for studies which relate a billiard's shape to the classical and semi-classical processes determining the magnetotranspo rt properties of the device. We describe an evolution between a square and Sinai billiard and compare the observed transitions of both class ical and quantum effects with those predicted from calculations.
