Composite fermions in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems are believed to form a Fermi sea of weakly interacting particles at half filling $ u=1/2$. Recently, it was proposed (D. T. Son, Phys. Rev. X 5, 031027 (2015)) that these composite fermions are Dirac particles. In our work, we demonstrate experimentally that composite fermions found in monolayer graphene are Dirac particles at half filling. Our experiments have addressed FQH states in high-mobility, suspended graphene Corbino disks in the vicinity of $ u=1/2$. We find strong temperature dependence of conductivity $sigma$ away from half filling, which is consistent with the expected electron-electron interaction induced gaps in the FQH state. At half filling, however, the temperature dependence of conductivity $sigma(T)$ becomes quite weak as expected for a Fermi sea of composite fermions and we find only logarithmic dependence of $sigma$ on $T$. The sign of this quantum correction coincides with weak antilocalization of composite fermions, which reveals the relativistic Dirac nature of composite fermions in graphene.

We study the role of anisotropy on the transport properties of composite fermions near Landau level filling factor $ u=1/2$ in two-dimensional holes confined to a GaAs quantum well. By applying a parallel magnetic field, we tune the composite fermion
Fermi sea anisotropy and monitor the relative change of the transport scattering time at $ u=1/2$ along the principal directions. Interpreted in a simple Drude model, our results suggest that the scattering time is longer along the longitudinal direction of the composite fermion Fermi sea. Furthermore, the measured energy gap for the fractional quantum Hall state at $ u=2/3$ decreases when anisotropy becomes significant. The decrease, however, might partly stem from the charge distribution becoming bilayer-like at very large parallel magnetic fields.
The effects of interactions in a 2D electron system in a strong magnetic field of two degenerate Landau levels with opposite spins and at filling factors 1/2 are studied. Using the Chern-Simons gauge transformation, the system is mapped to Composite
Fermions. The fluctuations of the gauge field induce an effective interaction between the Composite Fermions which can be attractive in both the particle-particle and in the particle-hole channel. As a consequence, a spin-singlet (s-wave) ground state of Composite Fermions can exist with a finite pair-breaking energy gap for particle-particle or particle-hole pairs. The competition between these two possible ground states is discussed. For long-range Coulomb interaction the particle-particle state is favored if the interaction strength is small. With increasing interaction strength there is a crossover towards the particle-hole state. If the interaction is short range, only the particle-particle state is possible.
Pairing interaction between fermionic particles leads to composite Bosons that condense at low temperature. Such condensate gives rise to long range order and phase coherence in superconductivity, superfluidity, and other exotic states of matter in t
he quantum limit. In graphene double-layers separated by an ultra-thin insulator, strong interlayer Coulomb interaction introduces electron-hole pairing across the two layers, resulting in a unique superfluid phase of interlayer excitons. In this work, we report a series of emergent fractional quantum Hall ground states in a graphene double-layer structure, which is compared to an expanded composite fermion model with two-component correlation. The ground state hierarchy from bulk conductance measurement and Hall resistance plateau from Coulomb drag measurement provide strong experimental evidence for a sequence of effective integer quantum Hall effect states for the novel two-component composite fermions (CFs), where CFs fill integer number of effective LLs (Lambda-level). Most remarkably, a sequence of incompressible states with interlayer correlation are observed at half-filled Lambda-levels, which represents a new type of order involving pairing states of CFs that is unique to graphene double-layer structure and beyond the conventional CF model.
We have studied the temperature dependence of diagonal conductivity in high-mobility two-dimensional samples at filling factors $ u=1/2$ and 3/2 at low temperatures. We observe a logarithmic dependence on temperature, from our lowest temperature of 1
3 mK up to 400 mK. We attribute the logarithmic correction to the effects of interaction between composite fermions, analogous to the Altshuler-Aronov type correction for electrons at zero magnetic field. The paper is accepted for publication in Physical Review B, Rapid Communications.
Via the application of parallel magnetic field, we induce a single-layer to bilayer transition in two-dimensional electron systems confined to wide GaAs quantum wells, and study the geometric resonance of composite fermions (CFs) with a periodic dens
ity modulation in our samples. The measurements reveal that CFs exist close to bilayer quantum Hall states, formed at Landau level filling factors $ u=1$ and 1/2. Near $ u=1$, the geometric resonance features are consistent with half the total electron density in the bilayer system, implying that CFs prefer to stay in separate layers and exhibit a two-component behavior. In contrast, close to $ u=1/2$, CFs appear single-layer-like (single-component) as their resonance features correspond to the total density.
