a Long-range case for \({n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{s}}}}}}}}}^{{{{{{{{\rm{i}}}}}}}}}\)(1011cm−2) = 20.26 and \({n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{s}}}}}}}}}^{{{{{{{{\rm{f}}}}}}}}}\)(1011cm−2) = 7.33 ≲ ng at several T, as shown; sample 2 × 50. b Short-range case for \({n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{s}}}}}}}}}^{{{{{{{{\rm{i}}}}}}}}}\)(1011cm−2) = 32.20 and \({n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{s}}}}}}}}}^{{{{{{{{\rm{f}}}}}}}}}\)(1011cm−2) = 7.50; sample 2 × 20. Dashed black lines indicate the stationary value \(\sigma={\sigma }_{0}({n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{s}}}}}}}}}^{{{{{{{{\rm{f}}}}}}}}},T)\). In both a and b, \({n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{s}}}}}}}}}^{{{{{{{{\rm{f}}}}}}}}} > {n}_{{{{{{{{\rm{c}}}}}}}}}\). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
