Quantum Hall Spherical Systems: the Filling Fraction

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

Within the newly formulated composite fermion hierarchy the filling fraction of a spherical quantum Hall system is obtained when it can be expressed as an odd or even denominator fraction. A plot of ν2SN1\nu\frac{2S}{N-1} as a function of 2S2S for a constant number of particles (up to N=10001) exhibits structure of the fractional quantum Hall effect. It is confirmed that νe+νh=1\nu_e +\nu_h=1 for all particle-hole conjugate systems, except systems with Ne=NhN_e =N_h, and Ne=Nh±1N_e=N_h \pm 1.
