The optical properties of an electron gas in a magnetic field at filling fractions u = {1over 2m} (m=1,2,3...) are investigated using the composite fermion picture. The response of the system to the presence of valence-band holes is calculated. The shapes of the emission spectra are found to differ qualitatively from the well-known electron-hole results at zero magnetic field. In particular, the asymmetry of the emission lineshape is found to be sensitive to the hole-composite fermion plane separation.

Motivated by the appearance of a `reflection symmetry in transport experiments and the absence of statistical periodicity in relativistic quantum field theories, we propose a series of relativistic composite fermion theories for the compressible stat es appearing at filling fractions $ u=1/2n$ in quantum Hall systems. These theories consist of electrically neutral Dirac fermions attached to $2n$ flux quanta via an emergent Chern-Simons gauge field. While not possessing an explicit particle-hole symmetry, these theories reproduce the known Jain sequence states proximate to $ u=1/2n$, and we show that such states can be related by the observed reflection symmetry, at least at mean field level. We further argue that the lowest Landau level limit requires that the Dirac fermions be tuned to criticality, whether or not this symmetry extends to the compressible states themselves.

Liquid crystalline phases of matter permeate nature and technology, with examples ranging from cell membranes to liquid-crystal displays. Remarkably, electronic liquid crystal phases can exist in two-dimensional electron systems (2DES) at half Landau level filling in the quantum Hall regime. Theory has predicted the existence of a liquid crystal smectic phase that breaks both rotational and translational symmetries. However, previous experiments in 2DES are most consistent with an anisotropic nematic phase breaking only rotational symmetry. Here we report three transport phenomena at half-filling in ultra-low disorder 2DES: a non-monotonic temperature dependence of the sample resistance, dramatic onset of large time-dependent resistance fluctuations, and a sharp feature in the differential resistance suggestive of depinning. These data suggest that a sequence of symmetry-breaking phase transitions occurs as temperature is lowered: first a transition from an isotropic liquid to a nematic phase and finally to a liquid crystal smectic phase.
Considering the quantum dynamics of 2DEG exposed to both a stationary magnetic field and an intense high-frequency electromagnetic wave, we found that the wave decreases the scattering-induced broadening of Landau levels. Therefore, various magnetoel ectronic properties of two-dimensional nanostructures (density of electronic states at Landau levels, magnetotransport, etc) are sensitive to the irradiation by light. Thus, the elaborated theory paves a way to optical controlling magnetic properties of 2DEG.
Proposed even-denominator fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) states suggest the possibility of excitations with non-Abelian braid statistics. Recent experiments on wide square quantum wells observe even-denominator FQHE even under electrostatic ti lt. We theoretically analyze these structures and develop a procedure to accurately test proposed quantum Hall wavefunctions. We find that tilted wells favor partial subband polarization to yield Abelian even-denominator states. Our results show that tilting quantum wells effectively engineers different interaction potentials allowing exploration of a wide variety of even-denominator states.
The two-dimensional electron gas at the surface of titanates gathered attention due to its potential to replace conventional silicon based semiconductors in the future. In this study, we investigated films of the parent perovskite CaTiO$_3$, grown by pulsed laser deposition, by means of angular-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The films show a c(4x2) surface reconstruction after the growth that is reduced to a p(2x2) reconstruction under UV-light. At the CaTiO$_3$ film surface, a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is found with an occupied band width of 400 meV. With our findings CaTiO$_3$ is added to the group of oxides with a 2DEG at their surface. Our study widens the phase space to investigate strontium and barium doped CaTiO$_3$ and the interplay of ferroelectric properties with the 2DEG at oxide surfaces. This could open up new paths to tailor two-dimensional transport properties of these systems towards possible applications.
