On the basis of energy calculations we investigate the competition between quantum-liquid and electron-solid phases in the Landau levels n=1,2, and 3 as a function of their partial filling factor. Whereas the quantum-liquid phases are…
Usually the Landau levels are given by (n+1/2)\hbar\omega_c with \hbar\omega_c=eB/mc. We find that there are clusters of electrons with localization so that the orbital angular momentum is not zero. There are interactions which transfer the…

We argue that, due to the specific form of the interaction potential between electronic guiding centers, a bubble crystal (BC) with basis may be energetically more favorable than the usual bubble solid. This new BC has well-defined normal…
