Crossover from Quantum to Classical Regime

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NanoScience and Technology ((NANO))

Abstract

The quantum Hall effect is a manifestation of quantum effects in macroscopic transport phenomena. In particular, the integer quantum Hall effect has provided various fundamental problems in solid state physics such as localization in high magnetic fields, a topological winding number, edge channels, etc. It has been used also as a resistance standard and has opened up a way to examine the validity of quantum electrodynamics through comparison of the fine structure constant.
