Boundary criticality at the Anderson transition between a metal and a quantum spin Hall insulator in two dimensions
Static disorder in a noninteracting gas of electrons confined to two dimensions can drive a continuous quantum (Anderson) transition between a metallic and an insulating state when time-reversal symmetry is preserved but spin-rotation symmetry is broken. The critical exponent $\ensuremath{\nu}$ that characterizes the diverging localization length and the bulk multifractal …
