Signature of Quantum Hall Effect Skyrmions in Tunneling: A Theoretical Study
We present a theoretical study of the tunneling characteristic between
two parallel two-dimensional electron gases in a perpendicular magnetic field
when both are near filling factor . Finite-size calculations of the
single-layer spectral functions in the spherical geometry and analytical
expressions for the disk geometry in the thermodynamic limit show that the
current in the presence of skyrmions reflects in a direct way their underlying
structure. It is also shown that fingerprints of the electron-electron
interaction pseudopotentials are present in such a current.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur
