We have studied nonlocal electrical transport over macroscopic distances in the regime of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE). Experiments clearly demonstrate dissipationless edge state conduction associated with the FQHE. Surprisingly, our data imply that there is no edge state conduction near ν=1/2 and on the low ν side of the ν=1 QHE state, while there is edge state conduction near ν=3/2 and on the high ν side of the ν=1 QHE state. We also observe that the electron-hole symmetry is broken for the edge states in a confined geometry. We develop a picture of edge state structure consistent with these observations.

AbstractDomain walls in fractional quantum Hall ferromagnets are gapless helical one-dimensional channels formed at the boundaries of topologically distinct quantum Hall (QH) liquids. Naïvely, these helical domain walls (hDWs) constitute two counter-propagating chiral states with opposite spins. Coupled to an s-wave superconductor, helical channels are expected to lead to topological superconductivity with high order non-Abelian excitations1–3. Here we investigate transport properties of hDWs in the ν = 2/3 fractional QH regime. Experimentally we found that current carried by hDWs is substantially smaller than the prediction of the naïve model. Luttinger liquid theory of the system reveals redistribution of currents between quasiparticle charge, spin and neutral modes, and predicts the reduction of the hDW current. Inclusion of spin-non-conserving tunneling processes reconciles theory with experiment. The theory confirms emergence of spin modes required for the formation of fractional topological superconductivity.
