We report magnetotransport measurements on bilayer GaAs hole systems with unequal hole concentrations in the two layers. At magnetic fields where one layer is in the integer quantum Hall state and the other has bulk extended states at the Fermi energy, the longitudinal and Hall resistances of the latter are hysteretic, in agreement with previous measurements. For a fixed magnetic field inside this region and at low temperatures ($Tle$ 350 mK), the time evolutions of the longitudinal and Hall resistances show pronounced jumps followed by slow relaxations, with no end to the sequence of jumps. Our measurements demonstrate that the jumps occur simultaneously in pairs of contacts 170 $mu$m apart, and appear to involve changes in the charge configuration of the bilayer. In addition, the jumps can occur with either random or regular periods, excluding thermal fluctuations as a possible origin for the jumps. Finally, while remaining at a fixed field, we warm the sample to above 350 mK, where the jumps disappear. Upon recooling the sample below this temperature, the jumps reappear, indicating that the jumps do not result from nearly dissipationless eddy currents either.

We study the low energy edge states of bilayer graphene in a strong perpendicular magnetic field. Several possible simple boundaries geometries related to zigzag edges are considered. Tight-binding calculations reveal three types of edge state behavi
ors: weakly, strongly, and non-dispersive edge states. These three behaviors may all be understood within a continuum model, and related by non-linear transformations to the spectra of quantum Hall edge--states in a conventional two-dimensional electron system. In all cases, the edge states closest to zero energy include a hole-like edge state of one valley and a particle-like state of the other on the same edge, which may or may not cross depending on the boundary condition. Edge states with the same spin generically have anticrossings that complicate the spectra, but which may be understood within degenerate perturbation theory. The results demonstrate that the number of edge states crossing the Fermi level in clean, undoped bilayer graphene depends BOTH on boundary conditions and the energies of the bulk states.
The hysteresis observed in the magnetoresistance of bilayer 2D systems in the quantum Hall regime is generally attributed to the long time constant for charge transfer between the 2D systems due to the very low conductivity of the quantum Hall bulk s
tates. We report electrometry measurements of a bilayer 2D system that demonstrate that the hysteresis is instead due to non-equilibrium induced current. This finding is consistent with magnetometry and electrometry measurements of single 2D systems, and has important ramifications for understanding hysteresis in bilayer 2D systems.
Measurements in GaAs hole bilayers with unequal layer densities reveal a pronounced magneto-resistance hysteresis at the magnetic field positions where either the majority or minority layer is at Landau level filling factor one. At a fixed field in t
he hysteretic regions, the resistance exhibits an unusual time dependence, consisting of random, bidirectional jumps followed by slow relaxations. These anomalies are apparently caused by instabilities in the charge distribution of the two layers.
Recent experiments on quantum Hall bilayers near total filling factor 1 have demonstrated that they support an ``imperfect two-dimensional superfluidity, in which there is nearly dissipationless transport at non-vanishing temperature observed both in
counterflow resistance and interlayer tunneling. We argue that this behavior may be understood in terms of a {it coherence network} induced in the bilayer by disorder, in which an incompressible, coherent state exists in narrow regions separating puddles of dense vortex-antivortex pairs. A renormalization group analysis shows that it is appropriate to describe the system as a vortex liquid. We demonstrate that the dynamics of the nodes of the network leads to a power law temperature dependence of the tunneling resistance, whereas thermally activated hops of vortices across the links control the counterflow resistance.
We present an experiment where the quantum coherence in the edge states of the integer quantum Hall regime is tuned with a decoupling gate. The coherence length is determined by measuring the visibility of quantum interferences in a Mach-Zehnder inte
rferometer as a function of temperature, in the quantum Hall regime at filling factor two. The temperature dependence of the coherence length can be varied by a factor of two. The strengthening of the phase coherence at finite temperature is shown to arise from a reduction of the coupling between co-propagating edge states. This opens the way for a strong improvement of the phase coherence of Quantum Hall systems. The decoupling gate also allows us to investigate how inter-edge state coupling influence the quantum interferences dependence on the injection bias. We find that the finite bias visibility can be decomposed into two contributions: a Gaussian envelop which is surprisingly insensitive to the coupling, and a beating component which, on the contrary, is strongly affected by the coupling.
