Abstract

The existence of fractional charges carrying current is experimentally demonstrated. Using a 2D electron system in a high perpendicular magnetic field we measure the shot noise associated with tunneling in the fractional quantum Hall regime at Landau level filling factor 1/3. The noise gives a direct determination of the quasiparticle charge, which is found to be ${e}^{*}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}e/3$ as predicted by Laughlin. The existence of $e/3$ Laughlin quasiparticles is unambiguously confirmed by the shot noise to Johnson-Nyquist noise crossover found for temperature $\ensuremath{\Theta}{\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}e}^{*}{V}_{\mathrm{ds}}/{2k}_{B}$.

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.
