Abstract
We study the temperature flow of conductivities in a gated GaAs two-dimensional electron gas
(2DEG) containing self-assembled InAs dots and compare the results with recent theoretical
predictions. By changing the gate voltage, we are able to tune the 2DEG density and thus vary
disorder and spin-splitting. Data for both the spin-resolved and spin-degenerate phase
transitions are presented, the former collapsing to the latter with decreasing gate voltage
and/or decreasing spin-splitting. The experimental results support a recent theory, based on
modular symmetry, which predicts how the critical Hall conductivity varies with spin-splitting.
