The model of interacting fermion systems in one dimension known as Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) provides a simple and exactly solvable theoretical framework, predicting various intriguing physical properties. Evidence of TLL has been observed as power-law behavior in the electronic transport and momentum-resolved spectroscopy on various types of one-dimensional (1D) conductors. However, these measurements, which rely on dc transport involving tunneling processes, cannot identify the eigenmodes of the TLL, i.e., collective excitations characterized by non-trivial effective charge e* and charge velocity v*. The elementary process of charge fractionalization, a phenomenon predicted to occur at the junction of a TLL and non-interacting leads, has not been observed. Here we report time-resolved transport measurements on an artificial TLL comprised of coupled integer quantum Hall edge channels, successfully identifying single charge fractionalization processes. An electron wave packet with charge e incident from a non-interacting region breaks up into several fractionalized charge wave packets at the edges of the artificial TLL region, from which e* and v* can be directly evaluated. These results are informative for elucidating the nature of TLLs and low-energy excitations in the edge channels.

In contrast to a free electron system, a Tomonaga-Luttinger (TL) liquid in a one dimensional (1D) electron system hosts charge and spin excitations as independent entities. When an electron wave packet is injected into a TL liquid, it transforms into
wave packets carrying either charge or spin that propagate at different group velocities and move away from each other. This process, known as spin-charge separation, is the hallmark of TL physics. While the existence of these TL eigenmodes has been identified in momentum- or frequency-resolved measurements, their waveforms, which are a direct manifestation of 1D electron dynamics, have been long awaited to be measured. In this study, we present a time domain measurement for the spin-charge-separation process in an asymmetric chiral TL liquid comprising quantum Hall (QH) edge channels. We measure the waveforms of both charge and spin excitations by combining a spin filter with a time-resolved charge detector. Spatial separation of charge- and spin-wave packets over a distance exceeding 200 um was confirmed. In addition, we found that the 1D electron dynamics can be controlled by tuning the electric environment. These experimental results provide fundamental information about non-equilibrium phenomena in actual 1D electron systems.
The Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) concept is believed to generically describe the strongly-correlated physics of one-dimensional systems at low temperatures. A hallmark signature in 1D conductors is the quantum phase transition between metallic and
insulating states induced by a single impurity. However, this transition impedes experimental explorations of real-world TLLs. Furthermore, its theoretical treatment, explaining the universal energy rescaling of the conductance at low temperatures, has so far been achieved exactly only for specific interaction strengths. Quantum simulation can provide a powerful workaround. Here, a hybrid metal-semiconductor dissipative quantum circuit is shown to implement the analogue of a TLL of adjustable electronic interactions comprising a single, fully tunable scattering impurity. Measurements reveal the renormalization group `beta-function for the conductance that completely determines the TLL universal crossover to an insulating state upon cooling. Moreover, the characteristic scaling energy locating at a given temperature the position within this conductance renormalization flow is established over nine decades versus circuit parameters, and the out-of-equilibrium regime is explored. With the quantum simulator quality demonstrated from the precise parameter-free validation of existing and novel TLL predictions, quantum simulation is achieved in a strong sense, by elucidating interaction regimes which resist theoretical solutions.
Electronic waveguides in graphene formed by counterpropagating snake states in suitable inhomogeneous magnetic fields are shown to constitute a realization of a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid. Due to the spatial separation of the right- and left-moving sn
ake states, this non-Fermi liquid state induced by electron-electron interactions is essentially unaffected by disorder. We calculate the interaction parameters accounting for the absence of Galilei invariance in this system, and thereby demonstrate that non-Fermi liquid effects are significant and tunable in realistic geometries.
There have been conflicting reports on the electronic properties of twin domain boundaries (DBs) in MoSe2 monolayer, including the quantum well states, charge density wave, and Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL). Here we employ low-temperature scanning
tunneling spectroscopy to reveal both the quantum confinement effect and signatures of TLL in the one-dimensional DBs. The data do not support the CDW at temperatures down to ~5 K.
The existence of long-lived non-equilibrium states without showing thermalization, which has previously been demonstrated in time evolution of ultracold atoms, suggests the possibility of their spatial analogue in transport behavior of interacting el
ectrons in solid-state systems. Here we report long-lived non-equilibrium states in one-dimensional edge channels in the integer quantum Hall regime. An indirect heating scheme in a counterpropagating configuration is employed to generate a non-trivial binary spectrum consisting of high- and low-temperature components. This unusual spectrum is sustained even after travelling 5 - 10 {mu}m, much longer than the length for electronic relaxation (about 0.1 {mu}m), without showing significant thermalization. This observation is consistent with the integrable model of Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid. The long-lived spectrum implies that the system is well described by non-interacting plasmons, which are attractive for carrying information for a long distance.
