We have calculated the fractional charge of quasiparticles in a cluster of electrons. The 61 values have been calculated which are exactly the same as the measured values. In a previous eprint we have calculated 85 values which are the same…
The effective fractional charges like 17/4 or 19/4 are explained by our angular momentum theory. These fractions do not arise from the odd denominator rule. Due to spin polarization for both of these along the magnetic field, these states…
We propose ways to create and detect fractionally charged excitations in \emph{integer} quantum Hall edge states. The charge fractionalization occurs due to the Coulomb interaction between electrons propagating on different edge channels.…
Charge excitations in a two dimensional electron gas, under a quantizing magnetic field and in the fractional quantum Hall effect regime, flow in one dimensional-like strips along the edges of the sample. These excitations (quasiparticles)…
Quasiparticles with fractional charge and fractional statistics are key features of the fractional quantum Hall effect. We discuss in detail the definitions of fractional charge and statistics and the ways in which these properties may be…
Charge fractionalization is a possible emergent excitation in a low-dimensional system of interacting electrons. A known example is that of fractional charges in the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) regime, which is a consequence of…
We have examined the experiments performed by Goldman and Su, de-Picciotto et al, Samanadayar et al and Conforti et al in which it is claimed that a fractional charge of e/3 is found. In all of the measurements, the quantity measured is the…
The concept of fractional charge is central to the theory of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE). Here I use exact diagonalization as well as configuration space renormalization (CSR) to study finite clusters which are large enough to…
Fractionalization is a phenomenon where an elementary excitation partitions into several pieces. This picture explains non-trivial transport through a junction of one-dimensional edge channels defined by topologically distinct quantum Hall…
A state with two electrons has a charge of 1/2. The states of three electrons have quasiparticle charge of 4/11 and 5/13, the one with 5 electrons have quasiparticle charges of 4/13 and 6/17. The state with 7 elctrons exhibits quasiparticle…
We discuss the propagation and fractionalization of localized charges on the edges of quantum Hall bars of variable widths, where interactions between the edges give rise to Luttinger liquid behavior with a non-trivial interaction parameter…
The charge of fractionally charged quasiparticles, proposed by Laughlin to explain the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE), was recently verified by measurements. Charge q=e/3 and e/5 (e is the electron charge), at filling factors nu=1/3…
One-dimensional metals, such as quantum wires or carbon nanotubes, can carry charge in arbitrary units, smaller or larger than a single electron charge. However, according to Luttinger theory, which describes the low-energy excitations of…
In a previous work, we reported exact results of energies of the ground state in the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) regime for systems with up to $N_{\text{e}} = 6$ electrons at the filling factor $\nu = 1/3$ by using the method of…
In 1976 Jackiw and Rebbi found 1/2 of a fermion number by using Dirac equation in 1+1 dimensions. Schrieffer in several proposals made an effort to suggest that there is a fractional charge. The calculations of Peierls distortion, Berry's…
Charge fractionalization is the phenomenon where quasi-particle excitations in a many-particle system appear with non-integer values relative to the fundamental charge unit. Examples of such systems are known from field theoretical models…
We employ shot noise measurements to characterize the effective charge of quasiparticles, at filling factor nu=1/3 of the fractional quantum Hall regime, as they scatter from an array of identical weak backscatterers. Upon scattering,…
Fractional quantum Hall quasiparticles are famous for having fractional electric charge. Recent experiments report that the quasiparticles' effective electric charge determined through tunneling current noise measurements can depend on the…
It has been pointed out by Smet that there are fractional-charge values which do not fit with their formula of composite fermions. We find that our formula predicts these fractional charges very well and in fact there exists a relationship…
We discuss the charge distributions across the bulk of a two-dimensional electron gas system which is on an integer or fractional quantum Hall plateau. Our analysis is based on a relation, derived from the long wavelength limit of the bulk…
