On the insulating side of the transition ((Formula presented)), there are also no signs of the weak-field positive magnetoconductance/negative magnetoresistance, which could be associated with the suppression of the coherent backscattering [see, e.g., V.M. Pudalov, M. D’Iorio, and J.W. Campbell, Surf. Sci.10.1016/0039-6028(94)90868-0 305, 107 (1994)].
