  The conductivity in quasi two-dimensional systems is calculated using the
quantum kinetic equation. Linearizing the Lenard-Balescu collision integral
with the extension to include external field dependences allows one to
calculate the conductivity with diagrams beyond the GW approximation including
maximally crossed lines. Consequently the weak localization correction as an
interference effect appears here from the field dependence of the collision
integral (the latter dependence sometimes called intra-collisional field
effect). It is shown that this weak localization correction has the same origin
as the Debye-Onsager relaxation effect in plasma physics. The approximation is
applied to a system of quasi two-dimensional electrons in hetero-junctions
which interact with charged and neutral impurities and the low temperature
correction to the conductivity is calculated analytically. It turns out that
the dynamical screening due to charged impurities leads to a linear temperature
dependence, while the scattering from neutral impurities leads to the usual
Fermi-liquid behavior. By considering an appropriate mass action law to
determine the ratio of charged to neutral impurities we can describe the
experimental metal-insulator transition at low temperatures as a Mott-Hubbard
transition.
