A nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study is reported of multiple (30) Al$_{0.13}$Ga$_{0.87}$As quantum well (QW) sample near the Landau level filling factor $ u =1$. In these Al$_{0.13}$Ga$_{0.87}$As QWs the effective $g$ factor is nearly zero. This can lead to two effects: vanishing electronic polarization $(P)$ and skyrmionic excitations composed of a huge number of spins. As small $P$ values cause an overlap of the NMR signals from the QW and barriers, a special technique was employed to allow these two signals to be distinguished. The QW signal corresponds to a small, negative, and very broad distribution of spin polarization that exhibits thermally induced depolarization. Such a distribution can be attributed to sample inhomogeneities and/or to large skyrmions, the latter possibility being favored by observation of a very fast $T_{2}^{-1}$ rate.

We report tilted-field magnetotransport measurements of two-dimensional electron systems in a 200 Angstrom-wide Al(0.13)Ga(0.87)As quantum well. We extract the energy gap for the quantum Hall state at Landau level filling u =1 as a function of the t
ilt angle. The relatively small effective Lande g-factor (g ~ 0.043) of the structure leads to skyrmionic excitations composed of the largest number of spins yet reported (s ~ 50). Although consistent with the skyrmion size observed, Hartree-Fock calculations, even after corrections, significantly overestimate the energy gaps over the entire range of our data.
We investigate quasiparticles in bilayer quantum Hall systems around total filling factor nu =1 by current-pumped and resistively detected NMR. The measured Knight shift reveals that the spin component in the quasiparticle increases continuously with
$Delta_{SAS}$. Combined with results for the pseudospin component obtained by activation gap measurements, this demonstrates that both spin and pseudospin are contained in a quasiparticle at intermediate $Delta_{SAS}$, providing evidence for the existence of the spin-pseudospin intermixed SU(4) skyrmion. Nuclear spin relaxation measurements show that the collective behavior of the SU(4) skyrmion system qualitatively changes with $Delta_{SAS}$.
We study the quantum propagation of a Skyrmion in chiral magnetic insulators by generalizing the micromagnetic equations of motion to a finite-temperature path integral formalism, using field theoretic tools. Promoting the center of the Skyrmion to a
dynamic quantity, the fluctuations around the Skyrmionic configuration give rise to a time-dependent damping of the Skyrmion motion. From the frequency dependence of the damping kernel, we are able to identify the Skyrmion mass, thus providing a microscopic description of the kinematic properties of Skyrmions. When defects are present or a magnetic trap is applied, the Skyrmion mass acquires a finite value proportional to the effective spin, even at vanishingly small temperature. We demonstrate that a Skyrmion in a confined geometry provided by a magnetic trap behaves as a massive particle owing to its quasi-one-dimensional confinement. An additional quantum mass term is predicted, independent of the effective spin, with an explicit temperature dependence which remains finite even at zero temperature.
We report measurements of the interaction-induced quantum Hall effect in a spin-polarized AlAs two-dimensional electron system where the electrons occupy two in-plane conduction band valleys. Via the application of in-plane strain, we tune the energi
es of these valleys and measure the energy gap of the quantum Hall state at filling factor $ u$ = 1. The gap has a finite value even at zero strain and, with strain, rises much faster than expected from a single-particle picture, suggesting that the lowest energy charged excitations at $ u=1$ are valley Skyrmions.
We discuss charged topological spin textures in quantum Hall ferromagnets in which the electrons carry a pseudospin as well as the usual spin degree of freedom, as is the case in bilayer GaAs or monolayer graphene samples. We develop a theory which t
reats spin and pseudospin on a manifestly equal footing, which may also be of help in visualizing the relevant spin textures. We in particular consider the entanglement of spin and pseudospin in the presence of realistic anisotropies. An entanglement operator is introduced which generates families of degenerate Skyrmions with differing entanglement properties. We propose a local characterization of the latter, and touch on the role entangled Skyrmions play in the nuclear relaxation time of quantum Hall ferromagnets.
