Abstract:
We study the localization properties of electrons in a two-dimensional model with on-site energies exhibiting long-range correlated
disorder. The localization length and conductance of the system are calculated by using the finite size scaling method combined
with transfer matrix technique. In the presence of long-range correlations, we find that there is a continuous line of fixed
points indicating that the system undergoes a disorder driven Kosterlitz-Thouless-type metal-insulator transition.
