Abstract:IntroductionThe quantum Hall effect (QHE) [1] is interesting with respect to understanding its physical mechanisms and with respect to its applications. Besides the use of the QHE to maintain a resistance standard on the basis of a macroscopic quantum effect [2], it is also possible to use quantum Hall systems (QHSs) to detect THz waves. This is because the energy gap between adjacent Landau levels (LLs) of ∆E LL ≈ 10 meV corresponds to photons of electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of λ ≈ 125 µm. Thus, se… Show more
