In a bilayer electronic system the layer index may be viewed as the z-component of an isospin-1/2. An XY isospin-ordered ferromagnetic phase was observed in quantum Hall systems and is predicted to exist at zero magnetic field at low…

The Hall-plateau width and the activation energy were measured in the bilayer quantum Hall state at filling factor \nu=2, 1 and 2/3, by changing the total electron density and the density ratio in the two quantum wells. Their behavior are…

Recently several moir\'e super-lattice systems are proposed to host nearly flat $\pm$ Chern bands: the bands of the two valleys have opposite Chern numbers. In these systems the charge of each valley is separately conserved. For the $C=\pm…
