Compressible Anisotropic States around the Half-Filled Landau Levels
Abstract
Description
Using the von Neumann lattice formalism, we study compressible anisotropic states around the half-filled Landau levels in the quantum Hall system. In these states the unidirectional charge density wave (UCDW) state seems to be the most plausible state. The charge density profile and Hartree-Fock energy of the UCDW are calculated self-consistently. The wave length dependence of the energy for the UCDW is also obtained numerically. We show that the UCDW is regarded as a collection of the one-dimensional lattice Fermi-gas systems which extend to the uniform direction. The kinetic energy of the gas system is generated dynamically from the Coulomb interaction.
