A. Pinczuk et al., INELASTIC LIGHT-SCATTERING IN THE REGIMES OF THE INTEGER AND FRACTIONAL QUANTUM HALL-EFFECTS, Semiconductor science and technology, 9(11), 1994, pp. 1865-1870
Recent resonant inelastic light scattering experiments in the fraction
al quantum Hall regime highlight the power of the method in studies of
electron-electron interactions in semiconductors of reduced dimension
s. We review here light scattering experiments that determine gap exci
tations in the regimes of the integer and fractional quantum Hall effe
cts. At integer values of the Landau level filling factor we consider
inter-Landau level excitations. In the fractional quantum Hall regime
we discuss the determination of long-wavelength gap excitations and sp
in waves in the incompressible quantum fluid at filling factor 1/3.
