The nu = 2 quantum Hall state at low Zeeman coupling is well known to be a translationally invariant singlet if Landau level mixing is small. At zero Zeeman interaction, as Landau level mixing increases, the translationally invariant state becomes unstable to an inhomogeneous state. This is the first realistic example of a full Hall crystal, which shows the coexistence of quantum Hall order and density wave order. The full Hall crystal differs from the more familiar Wigner crystal by a topological property, which results in it having only linearly dispersing collective modes at small q, and no q(3/2) magnetophonon. I present calculations of the topological number and the collective modes.
众所周知,如果朗道能级混合较小,低塞曼耦合下的ν = 2量子霍尔态是一个平移不变单重态。在零塞曼相互作用下,随着朗道能级混合增加,平移不变态对于非均匀态变得不稳定。这是全霍尔晶体的第一个现实例子,它展示了量子霍尔序和密度波序的共存。全霍尔晶体与更常见的维格纳晶体在拓扑性质上有所不同,这导致它在小q时只有线性色散的集体模式,且没有q(3/2)磁声子。我给出了拓扑数和集体模式的计算结果。
