Quantum Pumping and Quantized Magnetoresistance in a Hall Bar

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We show how a dc current can be generated in a Hall bar without applying a bias voltage. The Hall resistance RHR_H that corresponds to this pumped current is quantized, just as in the usual integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE). In contrast with the IQHE, however, the longitudinal resistance RxxR_{xx} does not vanish on the plateaus, but equals the Hall resistance. We propose an experimental geometry to measure the pumped current and verify the predicted behavior of RHR_H and RxxR_{xx}.
