Dimensional crossovers in magnetoresistance of submicron films and wires of CdTe:In

Description

We present millikelvin studies of magneto-resistance for epitaxial films and wires of CdTe:In. In comparison to the data with theoretical predictions for the weakly localized regime we put into the evidence the presence of the temperature-induced dimensional crossovers in the studied systems. Our measurements probe the electron phase-breaking rate and indicate that the main dephasing mechanism arises from the electron scattering from thermal fluctuations of three- or two-dimensional electron liquid.
