dc.descriptionDramatic glass-like behavior involving nonexponential relaxation of in-plane electrical conduction, has been induced in quench-condensed ultrathin amorphous Bi films by the application of a parallel magnetic field. The effect is found over a narrow range of film thicknesses well on the insulating side of the thickness-tuned superconductor-insulator transition. The simplest explanation of this field-induced glass-like behavior is a Pauli principle blocking of hopping transport between singly occupied states when electrons are polarized by the magnetic field. A second explanation involving weak coupling of superconducting clusters by intercluster interactions of random sign is also discussed.
