Quasi two-dimensional semiconductor layers offer a lot of spectacular properties of which the most famous is the Quantum Hall effect. We limit ourselves, however, only to the presentation of the simplest, well understood, but nevertheless surprising peculiarities of the classical and quantum mechanical two-dimensional motion of Coulomb interacting electrons in the presence of a strong transverse magnetic field.
