We study transport along interfaced edge segments of fractional quantum Hall states hosting non-Abelian Majorana modes. With an incoherent model approach, we compute, for edge segments based on Pfaffian, anti-Pfaffian, and…
The thermal Hall conductance $K$ of the fractional quantum Hall state at filling fraction $\nu=5/2$ has recently been measured to be $K=2.5 \pi^2k_B^2T/3h$ [M. Banerjee et al., Nature ${\bf 559}$, 205 (2018)]. The half-integer value of this…
Two-dimensional topological insulators, and in particular quantum Hall states, are characterized by an insulating bulk and a conducting edge. Fractional states may host both downstream (dictated by the magnetic field) and upstream…
Hole-conjugate states of the fractional quantum Hall effect host counter-propagating edge channels which are thought to exchange charge and energy. These exchanges have been the subject of extensive theoretical and experimental works; in…
We consider electrical and thermal equilibration of the edge modes of the Anti-Pfaffian quantum Hall state at $\nu=5/2$ due to tunneling of the Majorana edge mode to trapped Majorana zero modes in the bulk. Such tunneling breaks…
A system of electrons in two dimensions and strong magnetic fields can be tuned to create a gapped 2D system with one dimensional channels along the edge. Interactions among these edge modes can lead to independent transport of charge and…
The thermal Hall conductance is a universal and topological property which characterizes the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state. The quantized value of the thermal Hall conductance has only recently been measured experimentally in integer…
The even denominator fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states $\nu=5/2$ and $\nu=7/2$ have been long predicted to host non-abelian quasiparticles (QPs). Their present energy-carrying neutral modes are hidden from customary conductance…
The recent measurement of a half-integer thermal conductance for the $\nu=5/2$ fractional quantum Hall state has confirmed its non-Abelian nature, making the question of the underlying topological order highly intriguing. We analyze the…
Conductance of the edge modes as well as conductance across the co-propagating edge modes around the \nu = 4/3, 5/3 and 2 quantum Hall states are measured by individually exciting the modes. Temperature dependent equilibration rates of the…
Transport through edge-channels is responsible for conduction in quantum Hall (QH) phases. Topology dictates quantization of both charge and thermal transport coefficients. These turn out to approach robust quantized values when incoherent…
We investigate edge reconstruction scenarios in the $\nu = 1$ quantum Hall state, focusing on configurations with upstream and downstream charge and neutral modes. Our analysis shows that the coexistence of upstream charge and neutral modes…
Topological states of matter are characterized by topological invariant, which are physical quantities whose values are quantized and do not depend on details of the measured system. Of these, the easiest to probe in experiments is the…
The universal quantization of thermal conductance provides information on the topological order of a state beyond electrical conductance. Such measurements have become possible only recently, and have discovered, in particular, that the…
Thermal conductance has emerged as a powerful probe of topological order in the quantum Hall effect and beyond. The interpretation of experiments crucially depends on the ratio of the sample size and the equilibration length, on which…
We experimentally study equilibration between edge states, co-propagating at the edge of the fractional quantum Hall liquid, at high initial imbalances. We find an anomalous increase of the conductance between the fractional edge states at…
Pioneering thermal transport measurements on two-dimensional electron gases in high magnetic fields have demonstrated that the quantized Hall state at filling factor $\nu=5/2$ has a thermal Hall conductance $\kappa$ quantized in…
To determine the topological quantum numbers of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states hosting counter-propagating (CP) downstream ($N_d$) and upstream ($N_u$) edge modes, it is pivotal to study quantized transport both in the presence and…
Two dimensional electron systems exhibiting the fractional quantum Hall effects are characterized by a quantized Hall conductance and a dissipationless bulk. The transport in these systems occurs only at the edges where gapless excitations…
Recent experiments [Banerjee et al, arXiv:1710.00492] have measured thermal conductance of the nu=5/2 edge in a GaAs electron gas and found it to be quantized as K \approx 5/2 (in appropriate dimensionless units). This result is unexpected,…
