Abstract
We utilize the weak-localization effect in an array of one-dimensional channels to perform a quantitative measurement of the electronic phas e coherence time at temperatures between 100 mK and 4.2 K in the two-d imensional electron gas formed in a GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs heterostructure. T he measured times agree well with theories of dephasing based on elect ron-electron scattering.
