摘要:

分数量子霍尔效应领域的一个重要进展是提出了在GaAs量子阱中二维电子轨道指数为$n = 1$的朗道能级中观察到的5/2态起源于复合费米子的手征$p$ -波配对态,该复合费米子是电子和量子化涡旋的拓扑束缚态。这种状态在理论上可以用一个“普夫朗”波函数或它的空穴伙伴反普夫朗来描述,它的激发既不是费米子也不是玻色子,而是服从非阿贝尔辫子统计的马约拉纳准粒子。这激发了容错拓扑量子计算的想法,也激发了对具有奇异准粒子的其他状态的搜索。在这里,我们报告单层石墨烯的实验,显示出明确的证据意想不到的偶数分母分数量子霍尔物理在$n=3$朗道水平。我们数值研究了已知的偶分母分数量子霍尔效应的候选态,包括Pfundan,粒子-空穴对称Pfundan,和221-部分子状态,并得出结论,其中,221-部分子似乎是一个潜在的合适的候选人来描述实验观察到的状态。像Pfidian一样,这种状态被认为是具有非阿贝尔辫子统计的准粒子的港湾

英文摘要:

An important development in the field of the fractional quantum Hall effect has been the proposal that the 5/2 state observed in the Landau level with orbital index $n = 1$ of two dimensional electrons in a GaAs quantum well originates from a chiral $p$-wave paired state of composite fermions which are topological bound states of electrons and quantized vortices. This state is theoretically described by a "Pfaffian" wave function or its hole partner called the anti-Pfaffian, whose excitations are neither fermions nor bosons but Majorana quasiparticles obeying non-Abelian braid statistics. This has inspired ideas on fault-tolerant topological quantum computation and has also instigated a search for other states with exotic quasiparticles. Here we report experiments on monolayer graphene that show clear evidence for unexpected even-denominator fractional quantum Hall physics in the $n=3$ Landau level. We numerically investigate the known candidate states for the even-denominator fractional quantum Hall effect, including the Pfaffian, the particle-hole symmetric Pfaffian, and the 221-parton states, and conclude that, among these, the 221-parton appears a potentially suitable candidate to describe the experimentally observed state. Like the Pfaffian, this state is believed to harbour quasi-particles with non-Abelian braid statistics
