Quantum Hall Plateau Transition — Chalker-Coddington Network Model

Disorder W: 0.50 Energy E: 0.00 Paths: 30 Reset Pause

σ_xy (in e²/h): 1.00 Plateau: n=1 Localization: ∞

The Chalker-Coddington model describes quantum Hall plateau transitions via a 2D network of saddle-point scatterers. Electrons tunnel between edge states with probability determined by local disorder potential. At critical disorder, the localization length diverges and conductance transitions between quantized plateaus (σ_xy = ne²/h).
