Abstract

The temperature-dependent resistivity of the two-dimensional (2D) systems in MOSFETs and MODFETs in the `metallic' phase is investigated using the Drude-Boltzmann transport theory. The strong temperature dependence of resistivity arises from the temperature-dependent screening and a low Fermi temperature. The charged impurity scattering, carrier binding, and quantum crossover are analyzed.
