Excitation spectrum and collective modes of composite fermions.

چکیده
According to the composite fermion theory, the interacting electron system at filling factor ν is equivalent to the non-interacting composite fermion system at ν = ν/(1 − 2mν), which in turn is related to the non-interacting electron system at ν. We show that several eigenstates of non-interacting electrons at ν do not have any partners for interacting electrons at ν, but, upon composite fermion transformation, these states are eliminated, and the remaining states provide a good description of the spectrum at ν. We also show that the collective mode branches of incompressible states are well described as the collective modes of composite fermions. Our results suggest that, at small wave vectors, there is a single well defined collective mode for all fractional quantum Hall states. Implications for the Chern-Simons treatment of composite fermions will be discussed. 73.40.Hm,73.20.Dx Typeset using REVTEX

Anisotropy and strong-coupling effects on the collective mode spectrum of chiral superconductors: application to Sr2RuO41
Recent theories of Sr2RuO4 based on the interplay of strong interactions, spin-orbit coupling and multi-band anisotropy predict chiral or helical ground states with strong anisotropy of the pairing states, with deep minima in the excitation gap, as well as strong phase anisotropy for the chiral ground state. We develop time-dependent mean field theory to calculate the Bosonic spectrum for the c...
متن کاملDamping of Long-Wavelength Collective Modes in Spinor Bose-Fermi Mixtures.
Using an effective field theory we describe the low energy bosonic excitations in a three-dimensional ultracold mixture of spin-1 bosons and spin-1/2 fermions. We establish an interesting fermionic excitation induced generic damping of the usual undamped long-wavelength bosonic collective Goldstone modes. Two states with bosons forming either a ferromagnetic or polar superfluid are studied. The...
متن کاملHigher-energy composite fermion levels in the fractional quantum Hall effect.
Even though composite fermions in the fractional quantum Hall liquid are well established, it is not yet known up to what energies they remain intact. We probe the high-energy spectrum of the 1/3 liquid directly by resonant inelastic light scattering, and report the observation of a large number of new collective modes. Supported by our theoretical calculations, we associate these with transiti...
متن کاملElectromagnetic response and effective gauge theory of double-layer quantum Hall systems
We report on an effective gauge theory of double-layer quantum Hall systems, that is constructed via bosonization from the response of incompressible states without referring to composite bosons and fermions. It is pointed out that dipole-active excitations, both elementary and collective, govern the long-wavelength features of quantum Hall systems, and the single-mode approximation is used to ...

The low-energy excitations of filled Landau levels (LL's) of electrons involve promotion of a single electron from the topmost filled LL to the lowest empty LL. These are called excitons or collective modes. The incompress-ible fractional quantum Hall states are understood as filled LL's of composite fermions, and the low-energy neutral excitations are excitons of composite fermions. New techni...
