Monotonic growth of interlayer magnetoresistance in strong magnetic field in very anisotropic layered metals
/ Authors
/ Abstract
It is shown that the monotonic part of interlayer electronic conductivity strongly decreases in high magnetic field perpendicular to the conducting layers. Only the coherent interlayer tunneling has been considered, and the obtained result strongly contradicts the standard theory. This effect appears in very anisotropic layered quasi-two-dimensional metals, when the interlayer transfer integral is less than the Landau level separation.
