Abstract

We have studied the magnetotransport properties of two-dimensional electrons in thin GaAs-${\mathrm{Al}}_{x}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}\mathrm{As}$ multilayers with fields up to 210 kG from 4.2 to 2.4 K. We observed that ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{\mathrm{xx}}$ decreases with decreasing $T$ in the high-field limit $\ensuremath{\nu}=2\ensuremath{\pi}n{l}_{0}^{2}\ensuremath{\lesssim}1$, but ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{\mathrm{xy}}$ shows no such changes. We show that this result cannot be explained by models based on independent electrons and suggest as possible explanations the formation of a highly correlated state, such as a charge-density wave or Wigner solid previously suggested for the Si inversion layer, and the enhancement of $g$ factor at $\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\lesssim}1$.
