Research Abstract |
Skyrmion excitations were measured and compared for the first time in the bilayer quantum Hall (QH) state at the Landau-level filling factor ν=2 and in the monolayer QH state at ν=1. The observed number of flipped spins, Ns, is 14 in the bilayer sample with a large tunneling gap, and Ns=7 in the bilayer sample with a small tunneling gap, while it is Ns=7 in the monolayer sample. The difference is interpreted to be due to the interlayer exchange interaction. In the next stage, we measured the magnetoresistance of bilayer QH effects at the fractional filling factor ν=2/3 by changing the total electron density and the density difference between two layers. Three different QH states were separated by two types of phase transition : One is the spin transition and the other is the pseudospin transition. In addition, two different hystereses were detected, one of which is specific to bilayer systems. The phase transitions and the hystereses are described well by a composite fermion model extended to a bilayer system.
