A Phenomenological Study of Interlayer Tunneling in Double-Layered Quantum Hall Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study interlayer transport in double-layered (mmm) quantum Hall liquids in the weak tunneling limit, in particular the effects of lead geometry on the I-V characteristics of interlayer tunneling. We proposed several practical ways to study experimentally the novel interlayer transport properties in the double-layered (mmm) quantum Hall liquids. Some concrete predictions on the DC characteristics, narrow band noises, and finite temperature effects are given. We also clarify certain issues related to interlayer tunneling. In particular we discuss the similarities and differences between interlayer transports in Hall fluids and Josephson tunneling in superconductors.

Superfluidity and Superconductivity in Double-Layered Quantum Hall state
We discuss and review the basic physics that leads to superfluidity/superconductivity in certain quantum Hall states, in particular the so-called double-layered (mmm) state. In the K-matrix description of the quantum correlation in quantum Hall states, those states with det(K) = 0 contain a special correlation that leads to superfluidity/superconductivity. We propose a four-terminal measurement...
متن کاملTunneling in double-layered quantum Hall systems.
We study interlayer tunnelling in some double-layered quantum Hall states that contain neutral gapless superfluid mode. A tunnelling current less than a certain critical value will not cause any voltage drop between the two layers. A finite voltage V between the layers will induce an AC current with a frequency ω = eV/h̄. In contrast to tunnelling between superconductors, the critical current he...
متن کاملIncommensurate ground state of double-layer quantum Hall systems
Double-layer quantum Hall systems possess interlayer phase coherence at sufficiently small layer separations, even without interlayer tunneling. When interlayer tunneling is present, application of a sufficiently strong in-plane magnetic field B i.Bc drives a commensurate-incommensurate ~CI! transition to an incommensurate soliton-lattice ~SL! state. We calculate the Hartree-Fock ground-state e...
متن کاملIs there a dc Josephson effect in bilayer quantum Hall systems?
We argue on the basis of phenomenological and microscopic considerations that there is no dc Josephson effect in ordered bilayer quantum Hall systems, even at T = 0. Instead the tunnel conductance is strongly enhanced, approaching a finite value proportional to the square of the order parameter as the interlayer tunneling amplitude vanishes.
متن کاملFractional quantum Hall effect in bilayer two-dimensional hole-gas systems.
We have studied the fractional and integer quantum Hall effect in high mobility double layer 2D hole gas systems. The large hole effective mass inhibits tunneling, allowing us to investigate the regime in which the interlayer and intralayer interactions are comparable without significant interlayer tunneling occurring. As the interlayer separation is reduced we observe the formation of bilayer ...
