Hello,
For the past 2 days I've been looking for a resource discussing the metal insulator transition using percolation theory. (The next part treats the Anderson and Mott models)
I'm studying for a course of solid state physics where this is mentioned/summarized.
The problem is that the hand-outs are minimal, at best (ancient slides for an overhead projector that were scanned)
I've found some sources briefly mentioning it but without any reference.
I think I figured out it is about doping in semi-conductors which can turn the semi-conductor in a material with properties similar to metals. The application seems to allude to a low temperature environment as to minimize/avoid intrinsic charge carriers to exist.
Does anybody know of resources talking about this?
Or does anybody think the above reasoning makes sense?
