We study edge dynamics in the presence of interlayer tunneling, parallel magnetic field, and various types of disorder for two infinite sequences of quantum Hall states in symmetric bilayers. These sequences begin with the 110 and 331…
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…
We show that a quantum Hall bilayer with the total filling $\nu = 1$ should exhibit a dynamical regime similar to the flux-flow in large Josephson junctions. This analogy may explain a conspicuous peak in the interlayer tunneling…
We investigate, with the help of Monte-Carlo and exact-diagonalization calculations in the spherical geometry, several compressible and incompressible candidate wave functions for the recently observed quantum Hall state at the filling…
We develop a nonperturbative approach to the quantum Hall bilayer (QHB) at \nu=1 using trial wave functions. We predict phases of the QHB for arbitrary distance d and, our approach, in a dual picture, naturally introduces a new kind of…
The fractional quantum Hall states are non-Fermi liquids of electrons, in that their ground states and low energy excitations are described not in terms of electrons but in terms of composite fermions which are bound states of electrons and…
