Anisotropy of Magnetoresistance Hysteresis around the Quantum Hall State in Tilted Magnetic Field
We present an anisotropy of the hysteretic transport around the spin
transition point at Landau level filling factor in tilted magnetic
field. When the direction of the in-plane component of the magnetic field
is normal to the probe current , a strong hysteretic
transport due to the current-induced nuclear spin polarization occurs. When
is parallel to , on the other hand, the hysteresis almost
disappears. We also demonstrate that the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate
at the transition point increases with decreasing angle between
the directions of and . These results suggest that the
morphology of electron spin domains around is affected by the
current direction.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
The Study of Goldstone Modes in =2 Bilayer Quantum Hall Systems
At the filling factor =2, the bilayer quantum Hall system has three
phases, the spin-ferromagnet phase, the spin singlet phase and the canted
antiferromagnet (CAF) phase, depending on the relative strength between the
Zeeman energy and interlayer tunneling energy. We present a systematic method
to derive the effective Hamiltonian for the Goldstone modes in these three
phases. We then investigate the dispersion relations and the coherence lengths
of the Goldstone modes. To explore a possible emergence of the interlayer phase
coherence, we analyze the dispersion relations in the zero tunneling energy
limit. We find one gapless mode with the linear dispersion relation in the CAF
phase.Comment: 13 pages, no figures. One reference is added. Typos correcte
Magnetic control of particle-injection in plasma based accelerators
The use of an external transverse magnetic field to trigger and to control
electron self-injection in laser- and particle-beam driven wakefield
accelerators is examined analytically and through full-scale particle-in-cell
simulations. A magnetic field can relax the injection threshold and can be used
to control main output beam features such as charge, energy, and transverse
dynamics in the ion channel associated with the plasma blowout. It is shown
that this mechanism could be studied using state-of-the-art magnetic fields in
next generation plasma accelerator experiments.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure
Magnetotransport Study of the Canted Antiferromagnetic Phase in Bilayer Quantum Hall State
Magnetotransport properties are investigated in the bilayer quantum Hall
state at the total filling factor . We measured the activation energy
elaborately as a function of the total electron density and the density
difference between the two layers. Our experimental data demonstrate clearly
the emergence of the canted antiferromagnetic (CAF) phase between the
ferromagnetic phase and the spin-singlet phase. The stability of the CAF phase
is discussed by the comparison between experimental results and theoretical
calculations using a Hartree-Fock approximation and an exact diagonalization
study. The data reveal also an intrinsic structure of the CAF phase divided
into two regions according to the dominancy between the intralayer and
interlayer correlations.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figure
Electric-Field-Induced Nuclear Spin Resonance Mediated by Oscillating Electron Spin Domains in GaAs-Based Semiconductors
We demonstrate an alternative nuclear spin resonance using radio frequency
(RF) electric field (nuclear electric resonance: NER) instead of magnetic
field. The NER is based on the electronic control of electron spins forming a
domain structure. The RF electric field applied to a gate excites spatial
oscillations of the domain walls and thus temporal oscillations of the
hyperfine field to nuclear spins. The RF power and burst duration dependence of
the NER spectrum provides insight into the interplay between nuclear spins and
the oscillating domain walls.Comment: 4 page
Skyrmion pseudoSkyrmion Transition in Bilayer Quantum Hall States at
Bilayer quantum Hall states at have been demonstrated to possess a
distinguished state with interlayer phase coherence. The state has both
excitations of Skyrmion with spin and pseudoSkyrmion with pseudospin. We show
that Skyrmion pseudoSkyrmion transition arises in the state
by changing imbalance between electron densities in both layers; PseudoSkyrmion
is realized at balance point, while Skyrmion is realized at large imbalance.
The transition can be seen by observing the dependence of activation energies
on magnetic field parallel to the layers.Comment: 12 pages, no figure
Non-equilibrium Studies in Switching Arc Plasmas in Japan
This paper briefly introduce research work examples of non-equilibrium studies in switching arcs. In understanding arc behavior, one often assumes local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) condition in the arc plasma. However, actual arc plasmas are not completely and not always in LTE state because of strong temperature change temporally and spatially, and high electric field application etc. Recently, we have a collaboration work in numerical simulations and experimental approaches for decaying arcs without LTE assumption. First, our numerical model is presented for decaying arcs without chemical equilibrium assumption. Secondly, two experimental methods are introduced for measuring electron density in decaying arcs without LTE assumption: Laser Thomson Scattering method and the Schack-Hartmann method. Finally, comparison results is shown between the LTE simulation, the chemically non-equilibrium simulation, and the above experimental measurements
Simultaneous Excitation of Spins and Pseudospins in the Bilayer Quantum Hall State
The tilting angular dependence of the energy gap was measured in the bilayer
quantum Hall state at the Landau level filling by changing the density
imbalance between the two layers. The observed gap behavior shows a continuous
transformation from the bilayer balanced density state to the monolayer state.
Even a sample with 33 K tunneling gap shows the same activation energy anomaly
reported by Murphy {\it et al.}. We discuss a possible relation between our
experimental results and the quantum Hall ferromagnet of spins and pseudospins.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
