Abstract
Variation in the temperature dependence of the resistance and magnetic-fiel d dependence of negative magnetoresistance (MR) with increasing gate voltag e has been studied on an n-channel poly-Si MOS inversion layer. We find a c rossover from strongly-localized (hopping) to weakly-localized (diffusive) regime in two dimensions around the sheet resistance of approximate to 6 k Omega with increasing gate voltage. In both regimes, the negative MR due to orbital motion is observed and explained by the quantum interference effec ts.
