We report on an observation of a fractional quantum Hall effect in an ultra-high quality two-dimensional hole gas hosted in a strained Ge quantum well. The Hall resistance reveals precisely quantized plateaus and vanishing longitudinal resistance at filling factors $ u = 2/3, 4/3$ and $5/3$. From the temperature dependence around $ u = 3/2$ we obtain the composite fermion mass of $m^star approx 0.4,m_e$, where $m_e$ is the mass of a free electron. Owing to large Zeeman energy, all observed states are spin-polarized and can be described in terms of spinless composite fermions.

We report a magneto-transport study of a two-dimensional hole gas confined to a strained Ge quantum well grown on a relaxed Si0.2Ge0.8 virtual substrate. The conductivity of the hole gas measured as a function of a perpendicular magnetic field exhibi
ts a zero-field peak resulting from weak anti-localization. The peak develops and becomes stronger upon increasing the hole density by means of a top gate electrode. This behavior is consistent with a Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling whose strength is proportional to the perpendicular electric field, and hence to the carrier density. By fitting the weak anti-localization peak to a model including a dominant cubic spin-orbit coupling, we extract the characteristic transport time scales and a spin splitting energy of ~1 meV. Finally, we observe a weak anti-localization peak also for magnetic fields parallel to the quantum well and attribute this finding to a combined effect of surface roughness, Zeeman splitting, and virtual occupation of higher-energy hole subbands.
The temperature dependence of microwave-induced resistance oscillations (MIRO), according to the theory, originates from electron-electron scattering. This scattering affects both the quantum lifetime, or the density of states, and the inelastic life
time, which governs the relaxation of the nonequilibrium distribution function. Here, we report on MIRO in an ultrahigh mobility ($mu > 3 times 10^7$ cm$^2$/Vs) 2D electron gas at $T$ between $0.3$ K and $1.8$ K. In contrast to theoretical predictions, the quantum lifetime is found to be $T$-independent in the whole temperature range studied. At the same time, the $T$-dependence of the inelastic lifetime is much emph{stronger} than can be expected from electron-electron interactions.
Using acoustic method we study dependences of transverse AC conductance, $sigma (omega)$, on magnetic field, temperature and the amplitude of AC electric field in a wide (75 nm) quantum well (QW) structure focusing on the vicinity of the filling fact
or $ u =1/2$. Measurements are performed in the frequency domain 30-307 MHz and in the temperature domain 20-500 mK. Usually, in wide QW structures closely to $ u =1/2$ the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) regime is realized at some parameters of the sample. However, in our structure, at $ u =1/2$ it is a compressible state corresponding to gas of composite fermions which is observed. This is confirmed by apparent frequency independence and weakly decreasing temperature dependence of $mathrm{Re}, sigma(omega)$. Comparing the dependences of this quantity on temperature and power of the acoustic wave we conclude that the observed nonlinear behavior of the conductance is compatible with heating of the composite fermions by the acoustic wave. For comparison, we also study the vicinity of $ u = 3/2$ where the FQHE regime is clearly observed.
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.
The effective g-factor of 2D holes in modulation doped mbox{p-SiGe/Ge/SiGe} structures was studied. The AC conductivity of samples with hole densities from $3.9 times 10^{11}$~to $6.2 times 10^{11}~text{cm}^{-2}$ was measured in perpendicular magneti
c fields up to $8~text{T}$ using a contactless acoustic method. From the analysis of the temperature dependence of conductivity oscillations, the $mathrm{g}_{perp}$-factor of each sample was determined. The $mathrm{g}_{perp}$-factor was found to be decreasing approximately linearly with hole density. This effect is attributed to non-parabolicity of the valence band.
