Abstract:
We present in this paper the results from a recent study on the stability of the quantum Hall skyrmions state at a Landau level filling factor (ν) close to ν = 1 in a narrow GaAs quantum well. Consistent with previous work, a resonant behavior is observed in the resistively detected NMR measurements. In the subsequent current-voltage (I-V) measurements to examine its breakdown behavior under radio frequency radiations, we observe that the critical current assumes the largest value right at the 75As nuclear resonant frequency. We discuss possible origin for this unexpectedly enhanced stability.
