Fermi-sea-like correlations in a partially filled Landau level

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

The pair distribution function and the static structure factor are computed for composite fermions. Clear and robust evidence for a 2kF2k_F structure is seen in a range of filling factors in the vicinity of the half-filled Landau level. Surprisingly, it is found that filled Landau levels of composite fermions, i.e. incompressible FQHE states, bear a stronger resemblance to a Fermi sea than do filled Landau levels of electrons.
