In two-dimensional (2D) electron systems under strong magnetic fields, interactions can cause fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effects. Bringing two 2D conductors to proximity, a new set of correlated states can emerge due to interactions…
We have studied quantum-well-confined holes based on the Luttinger-model description for the valence band of typical semiconductor materials. Even when only the lowest quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) subband is populated, the static spin…
Double-layer electron systems in the quantum Hall regime have excitonic condensate ground states when the layers are close together and the total Landau level filling factor is close to an odd integer. In this paper we discuss the…
The observation of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect in 2D electron gases ushered in investigations of topological phases driven by strong electron correlations. Their remarkable features include fractionalized elementary…
Quantum well states (QWSs) can form at the surface or interfaces of materials with confinement potential. They have broad applications in electronic and optical devices such as high mobility electron transistor, photodetector and quantum…
Fractional quantum Hall states (FQHSs) at even-denominator Landau level filling factors ($\nu$) are of prime interest as they are predicted to host exotic, topological states of matter. We report here the observation of a FQHS at $\nu=1/2$…
The incommensurate phase of a bilayer quantum Hall state is found to have a ``rippled'' dipole charge density whenever the layers are unbalanced. This tunable dipole-density-wave instability could be detected by sensitive capacitance…
We present measurements of Coulomb drag in an ambipolar GaAs/AlGaAs double quantum well structure that can be configured as both an electron-hole bilayer and a hole-hole bilayer, with an insulating barrier of only 10 nm between the two…
Graphene enables precise carrier-density control via gating, making it an ideal platform for studying electronic interactions. However, sample inhomogeneities often limit access to the low-density regimes where these interactions dominate.…
In double quantum wells electrons experience a Lorentz force oriented perpendicular to the structure plane when an electric current is driven perpendicular to the direction of an in-plane magnetic field. Consequently, the excess charge is…
We theoretically study the Coulomb drag resistivity in a double-layer electron system with highly anisotropic parabolic band structure using Boltzmann transport theory. As an example, we consider a double-layer phosphorene on which we apply…
We have measured the temperature (0.1 < T < 15 K) and magnetic field (0 < B < 32 T) dependences of longitudinal and Hall resistivities for the p-Ge_{1-x}Si_x/Ge, x=~0.07, multilayers with different Ge layer widths 10 < d_w < 38 nm and hole…
We report experimental results on a quantum point contact (QPC) device formed in a wide AlAs quantum well where the two-dimensional electrons occupy two in-plane valleys with elliptical Fermi contours. To probe the closely-spaced,…
The quantum Hall effect emerges when two-dimensional samples are subjected to strong magnetic fields at low temperatures: Topologically protected edge states cause a quantized Hall conductivity in multiples of $e^2/h$. Here we show that the…
The combined inductive and coulombic coupling of an orbitally quantized two-dimensional electron gas to a one-dimensional charge-density wave (CDW) is shown to give rise to an anisotropic quantum fluid in which the Hall electric field,…
Degenerate conduction-band minima, or `valleys', in materials such as Si, AlAs, graphene, and MoS$_2$ allow them to host two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) that can access a valley degree of freedom. These multivalley 2DESs present…
Doped free carriers can substantially renormalize electronic self-energy and quasiparticle band gaps of two-dimensional (2D) materials. However, it is still challenging to quantitatively calculate this many-electron effect, particularly at…
Thanks to their multi-valley, anisotropic, energy band structure, two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) in modulation-doped AlAs quantum wells (QWs) provide a unique platform to investigate electron interaction physics and ballistic…
The unusual properties of two-dimensional electron systems that give rise to the quantum Hall effect have prompted the development of new microscopic models for electrical conduction. The bulk properties of the quantum Hall effect have also…
By means of degenerate four-wave mixing (FWM), we investigate the quantum coherence of electron-hole pairs in the presence of a two-dimensional electron gas in modulation-doped GaAs-AlGaAs quantum wells in the quantum Hall effect regime.…
