An incompressible state of a photo-excited electron gas
arXiv:1504.04295 · doi:10.1038/ncomms8210
Abstract
Two dimensional electrons in a magnetic field can form new states of matter characterized by topological properties and strong electronic correlations as displayed in the integer and fractional quantum Hall states. In these states the electron liquid displays several spectacular characteristics which manifest themselves in transport experiments with the quantization of the Hall resistance and a vanishing longitudinal conductivity or in thermodynamic equilibrium when the electron fluid becomes incompressible. Several experiments have reported that dissipation-less transport can be achieved even at weak, non-quantizing magnetic fields when the electrons absorb photons at specific energies related to their cyclotron frequency. Compressibility measurements on electrons on liquid helium demonstrate the formation of an incompressible electronic state under these resonant excitation conditions.
