The non-linear zero-differential resistance state (ZDRS) that occurs for highly mobile two-dimensional electron systems in response to a dc bias in the presence of a strong magnetic field applied perpendicular to the electron plane is suppressed and disappears gradually as the magnetic field is tilted away from the perpendicular at fixed filling factor $ u$. Good agreement is found with a model that considers the effect of the Zeeman splitting of Landau levels enhanced by the in-plane component of the magnetic field.

We show that the Coulomb blockade in parallel dots pierced by magnetic flux $Phi$ completely blocks the resonant current for any value of $Phi$ except for integer multiples of the flux quantum $Phi_0$. This non-analytic (switching) dependence of the current on $Phi$ arises only when the dot states that carry the current are of the same energy. The time needed to reach the steady state, however, diverges when $Phito nPhi_0$.
Zero differential resistance state is found in response to direct current applied to 2D electron systems at strong magnetic field and low temperatures. Transition to the state is accompanied by sharp dip of negative differential resistance, which occurs above threshold value $I_{th}$ of the direct current. The state depends significantly on the temperature and is not observable above several Kelvins. Additional analysis shows lack of the linear stability of the 2D electron systems at $I>I_{th}$ and inhomogeneous, non-stationary pattern of the electric current in the zero differential resistance state. We suggest that the dc bias induced redistribution of the 2D electrons in energy space is the dominant mechanism leading to the new electron state.
We report single layer resistivities of 2-dimensional electron and hole gases in an electron-hole bilayer with a 10nm barrier. In a regime where the interlayer interaction is stronger than the intralayer interaction, we find that an insulating state ($drho/dT < 0$) emerges at $Tsim1.5{rm K}$ or lower, when both the layers are simultaneously present. This happens deep in the $$metallic regime, even in layers with $k_{F}l>500$, thus making conventional mechanisms of localisation due to disorder improbable. We suggest that this insulating state may be due to a charge density wave phase, as has been expected in electron-hole bilayers from the Singwi-Tosi-Land-Sjolander approximation based calculations of L. Liu {it et al} [{em Phys. Rev. B}, {bf 53}, 7923 (1996)]. Our results are also in qualitative agreement with recent Path-Integral-Monte-Carlo simulations of a two component plasma in the low temperature regime [ P. Ludwig {it et al}. {em Contrib. Plasma Physics} {bf 47}, No. 4-5, 335 (2007)]
We study the effect of an in-plane magnetic field on the non-interacting dispersion of twisted bilayer graphene. Our analysis is rooted in the chirally symmetric continuum model, whose zero-field band structure hosts exactly flat bands and large energy gaps at the magic angles. At the first magic angle, the central bands respond to a parallel field by forming a quadratic band crossing point (QBCP) at the Moire Brillouin zone center. Over a large range of fields, the dispersion is invariant with an overall scale set by the magnetic field strength. For deviations from the magic angle and for realistic interlayer couplings, the motion and merging of the Dirac points lying near charge neutrality are discussed in the context of the symmetries, and we show that small magnetic fields are able to induce a qualitative change in the energy spectrum. We conclude with a discussion on the possible ramifications of our study to the interacting ground states of twisted bilayer graphene systems.
We experimentally investigate the effect of a magnetic field on photon detection in superconducting single-photon detectors. At low fields, the effect of a magnetic field is through the direct modification of the quasiparticle density of states of the superconductor, and magnetic field and bias current are interchangable, as is expected for homogeneous dirty-limit superconductors. At the field where a first vortex enters the detector, the effect of the magnetic field is reduced, up until the point where the critical current of the detector starts to be determined by flux flow. From this field on, increasing the magnetic field does not alter the detection of photons anymore, whereas it does still change the rate of dark counts. This result points at an intrinsic difference in dark and light counts, and also shows that no enhancement of the intrinsic detection efficiency of a straight SSPD wire is achievable in a magnetic field.
