Two point-contact interferometer for quantum Hall systems

Abstract

We propose a device, consisting of a Hall bar with two weak barriers, that can be used to study quantum interference effects in a strongly correlated system. We show how the device provides a way of measuring the fractional charge and fractional statistics of quasiparticles in the quantum Hall effect through an anomalous Aharanov-Bohm period. We discuss how this disentangling of the charge and statistics can be accomplished by measurements at fixed filling factor and at fixed density. We also discuss another type of interference effect that occurs in the nonlinear regime as the source-drain voltage is varied. The period of these oscillations can also be used to measure the fractional charge, and details of the oscillation patterns, in particular the position of the nodes, can be used to distinguish between Fermi-liquid and Luttinger-liquid behavior. We illustrate these ideas by computing the conductance of the device in the framework of edge state theory and use it to estimate parameters for the experimental realization of this device.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
