Interlayer coherence and entanglement in bilayer quantum Hall states at $\nu=2/\lambda$

Abstract

We study coherence and entanglement properties of the state space of a composite bi-fermion (two electrons pierced by $\lambda$ magnetic flux lines) at one Landau site of a bilayer quantum Hall system. In particular, interlayer imbalance and entanglement (and its fluctuations) are analyzed for a set of $U(4)$ coherent (\emph{quasiclassical}) states generalizing the standard pseudospin $U(2)$ coherent states for the spin-frozen case. The interplay between spin and pseudospin degrees of freedom opens new possibilities with regard to the spin-frozen case. Actually, spin degrees of freedom make interlayer entanglement more effective and robust under perturbations than in the spin-frozen situation, mainly for a large number of flux quanta $\lambda$.

Coherent states on the GrassmannianU(4)/U(2)2: oscillator realization and bilayer fractional quantum Hall systems

Manuel Calixto, E. Pérez-Romero

Bilayer quantum Hall (BLQH) systems, which underlie a U (4) symmetry, display unique quantum coherence effects. We study coherent states (CS) on the complex Grassmannian , orthonormal basis, U (4) generators and their matrix elements in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space of analytic square-integrable holomorphic functions on , which carries a unitary irreducible representation of U (4) with index . A many-body representation of the previous construction is introduced through an oscillator realization of the U (4) Lie algebra generators in terms of eight boson operators. This particle picture allows us to make a physical interpretation of our abstract mathematical construction in the BLQH jargon. In particular, the index λ is related to the number of flux quanta bound to a bi-fermion in the composite fermion picture of Jain for fractions of the filling factor ν = 2. The simpler, and better known, case of spin- s CS on the Riemann–Bloch sphere is also treated in parallel, of which Grassmannian -CS can be regarded as a generalized (matrix) version.

Excitation spectrum of $\nu=2$ Bilayer Quantum Hall Systems

YUICHI SHIMODA, Tatsuya Nakajima, Anju Sawada

Excitation spectra in bilayer quantum Hall systems at total Landau-level filling $\nu=2$ are studied by the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation. The systems have the spin degrees of freedom in addition to the layer degrees of freedom described in terms of pseudospin. On the excitation spectra from spin-unpolarized and pseudospin-polarized ground state, this approximation fully preserves the spin rotational symmetry and thus can give not only spin-triplet but also spin-singlet excitations systematically. It is also found that the ground-state properties are well described by this approximation.

Correlation energy, quantum phase transition, and bias potential effects in quantum Hall bilayers at ν=1

John Schliemann

We study the correlation energy, the effective anisotropy parameter, and quantum fluctuations of the pseudospin magnetization in bilayer quantum Hall systems at total filling factor \ensuremath{\nu}=1 by means of exact diagonalizations of the Hamiltonian in the spherical geometry. We compare exact-diagonalization results for the ground-state energy with finite-size Hartree-Fock values. In the ordered ground-state phase at small layer separations the Hartree-Fock data compare reasonably with the exact results. Above the critical layer separation, however, the Hartree-Fock findings still predict an increase in the ground-state energy, while the exact ground-state energy is in this regime independent of the layer separation indicating the decoupling of layers and the loss of spontaneous phase coherence between them. We also find accurate values for the pseudospin anisotropy constant, whose dependence of the layer separation provides another very clear indication for the strong interlayer correlations in the ordered phase and shows an inflection point at the phase boundary. Finally, we discuss the possibility of interlayer correlations in biased systems even above the phase boundary for the balanced case. Certain features of our data for the pseudospin anisotropy constant as well as for quantum fluctuations of the pseudospin magnetization are not inconsistent with the occurrence of this effect. However, it appears to be rather weak at least in the limit of vanishing tunneling amplitude.

HARTREE–FOCK–BOGOLIUBOV STUDIES OF BILAYER ν = 2 QUANTUM HALL SYSTEMS

YUICHI SHIMODA, Tatsuya Nakajima, Anju Sawada

Excitation spectra in bilayer quantum Hall systems at total Landau-level filling ν = 2 are studied by the Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov (HFB) approximation. The systems have the spin degrees of freedom in addition to the layer degrees of freedom described in terms of pseudospin. On the excitation spectrum from the spin-singlet and pseudospin-polarized ground state, this approximation fully preserves the spin rotational symmetry and thus can give both spin-triplet and spin-singlet excitations systematically. It is also found that the ground state is pseudospin squeezed because of pseudospin correlations and that the HFB approximation can describe ground-state properties better than other approximations.

Phase transition in bilayer quantum Hall system with opposite magnetic field

Ke 珂 Yang 杨

We construct a mapped bilayer quantum Hall system to realize the proposal that two nearly flatbands have opposite Chern numbers. For the C = ±1 case, the two Landau levels of the bilayer experience opposite magnetic fields. We consider a mapped bilayer quantum Hall system at total filling ν t = 1 2 + 1 2 where the intralayer interaction is repulsive and the interlayer interaction is attractive. We take exact diagonalization (ED) calculations on a torus to study the phase transition when the separation distance d/lB is driven. The critical point at d c/lB = 0.68 is characterized by a collapse of degeneracy and a crossing of energy levels. In the region d/lB < d c/lB , the states of each level are highly degenerate. The pair-correlation function indicates electrons with opposite pseudo-spins are strong correlated at r = 0. We find an exciton stripe phase composed of bound pairs. The ferromagnetic ground state is destroyed by the strong effective attractive potential. An electron composite-Fermion (eCF) and a hole composite Fermion (hCF) are tightly bound. In the region d/lB > d c/lB , a crossover from the d → d c limit to the large d limit is observed. The electron and hole composite Fermion liquids (CFL) are realized by composite Fermions (CF) which attach opposite fluxes, respectively.
