20 Oct 1997 | | Subject: | Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect | cond-mat.mes-hall | | Affiliation: | ITP, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, P.R.China | | Abstract: | Based on a newly advanced phenomenological understanding of the high-field insulator- Hall liquid transition in a composite fermion picture, we extend its composite boson counterpart to the analysis of the low-field insulator-Hall liquid transition. We thus achieve a comparative study of these two transitions. In this way, the similar reflection symmetries in filling factors in both transitions are understood consistently as due to the symmetry of the gapful excitations which dominate $sigma_{xx}$ across the transitions, and the abrupt change in $sigma_{xy}$ at the transitions. The substantially different characteristic energy scales involved in these two transitions can be attributed to the differences in critical filling factors $
u_c$ and the effective masses. The opposite temperature-dependences of the critical longitudinal resistivities are also well-understood, which can be traced to the opposite statistical natures of the composite fermion and the composite boson. We also give a tentative discussion of the zero-temperature dissipative conductivity. The above results are supported by a recent experiment (cond-mat/9708239). | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/9710196 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
