摘要
The plateau-plateau transition in the integer quantum Hall effect is studied in three Hall bars with different widths. The slopes of the Hall resistance as a function of magnetic field follow the scaling power law as expected in the plateau-plateau transition, and saturate a the low temperature limit. Surprisingly, the saturation temperature is irrelevant with the Hall bar size, which suggests that the saturation of the coherence length is intrinsic.
