  • Title: Bilayer coherent and quantum Hall phases: duality and quantum disorder.
    Author: Demler E, Nayak C, Das Sarma S.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2001 Feb 26; 86(9):1853-6. PubMed ID: 11290265.
    Abstract:
    We consider a fully spin-polarized quantum Hall system with no interlayer tunneling at total filling factor nu = 1/k (where k is an odd integer) using the Chern-Simons-Ginzburg-Landau theory. Exploiting particle-vortex duality and the concept of quantum disordering, we find a large number of possible compressible and incompressible ground states, some of which may have relevance to recent experiments of Spielman et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 5808 (2000)]. We find interlayer coherent compressible states without Hall quantization and interlayer incoherent incompressible states with Hall quantization in addition to the usual (k,k,k) Halperin states, which are both interlayer coherent and incompressible.
