摘要:

不同的不稳定性已被推测为三维电子气限制在其最低朗道能级。强磁场在石墨中诱导的相变被认为是电荷密度波(CDW),是这种不稳定性的唯一实验确定的情况。首次研究了80 T下石墨的磁电阻效应,发现磁场诱导了两个连续的相变,由两个不同的有序态组成,每个有序态都被限制在一个有限的场窗口内。在这两种状态下,一个能隙打开了在面外的导电性和共存的一个意想不到的面内金属性的完全间隙体系统。这种奇特的金属性可能会出现的结果,预计在存在的散装差距发展的边缘状态运输。

英文摘要:

Different instabilities have been speculated for a three-dimensional electron gas confined to its lowest Landau level. The phase transition induced in graphite by a strong magnetic field, and believed to be a Charge Density Wave (CDW), is the only experimentally established case of such instabilities. Studying the magnetoresistance in graphite for the first time up to 80 T, we find that the magnetic field induces two successive phase transitions, consisting of two distinct ordered states each restricted to a finite field window. In both states, an energy gap opens up in the out-of-plane conductivity and coexists with an unexpected in-plane metallicity for a fully gap bulk system. Such peculiar metallicity may arise as a consequence of edge-state transport expected to develop in presence of a bulk gap.
