Kou, Angela. 2013. Microscopic Properties of the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect. Doctoral dissertation, Harvard University.Abstract
The fractional quantum Hall effect occurs when an extremely clean 2-dimensional fermion gas is subject to a magnetic field. This simple set of circumstances creates phenomena, such as edge reconstruction and fractional statistics, that remain subjects of experimental study 30 years after the discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect. This thesis investigates the properties of excitations of the fractional quantumTerms of Use
