“…But we propose that the nearly dissipationless conduction channel is very narrow in our samples as the critical current is approached, and that the conduction channel becomes entirely pinched-off and dissipative above the critical current. Our samples therefore may have effective geometries similar to those of Bliek et al [ 5 ] near breakdown. We assume the global current-carrying equipotentials of the percolation model [ 6 ], as strongly suggested by experiments which measured the potential distribution across quantum Hall devices [ 7 ].…”

“…The current density J x =I x /L y =E y /( h /4 q 2 ) varies between 240–600 A/m. This is an astonishingly large number compared with that found in [ 5 ], but the current has a better opportunity of finding a dissipationless path in wide high-quality samples. Also, qV H ≈ 200 ℏω c .…”

“…Field Figure 1 shows two sweeps of Vx (4,6) versus the magnetic field B for the i =2 (12,906.4 fl) quantized Hall resistance plateau at a temperature of 0.33 K and a current I of + 220 jxA, where positive current corresponds to electrons entering the source and exiting the drain. This current is approaching the 227 [lA critical current value above which, in this magnetic field region, Vx is non-zero for these particular potential probes.…”

“…It could be, however, that it is the longitudinal resistance R x that is quantized, rather than V x , since R x = V x / I x . Indeed, Bliek et al [ 10 ] assumed a quantized R x in a phenomenological model to explain breakdown structures in their curves of V x versus B for samples with narrow constrictions. Also, although not quantized, Sachrajda et al [ 11 ] assumed magnetic field and current dependent resistive channels along the sample to explain their breakdown data.…”
