Direct observation of the transverse near field of an edge excitation in a fractional quantum Hall state

Stroboscopic time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) microscopy and spectroscopy reveal that an electrically launched edge excitation in a $μ= 1/3$ fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state produces an immediate PL response extending more than 30 $μ$m into the bulk transverse to the edge when the edge magnetoplasmon (EMP) passes the mesa boundary. The nearly instantaneous nature and downstream-only appearance of this long-range response identify it as the non-radiative, quasi-electrostatic near field. We also observe a broad delayed response near the mesa boundary that evolves on a much slower time scale and gradually extends into the bulk. The coexistence of the immediate near-field response and this broad delayed response shows that an electrically launched edge excitation cannot be understood solely as a one-dimensional mode propagating along the boundary, but must instead be viewed as a structure extending in both space and time into the surrounding FQH fluid.

Spatiotemporal imaging of gate-controlled multipath dynamics of fractional quantum Hall edge excitations

Quantum Hall edge excitations, whose low-energy behavior admits a chiral conformal-field-theory description, are a promising platform for engineered dynamical experiments, including analog-spacetime proposals. However, establishing their edge dynamics in realistic electrostatic landscapes is essential for controlled dynamical experiments and has remained experimentally challenging. Here we report spatiotemporal imaging of gate-controlled multipath dynamics of edge excitations in a $ν= 1/3$ fractional quantum Hall device using stroboscopic time-resolved photoluminescence microscopy and spectroscopy with $\sim$100-ps resolution. By tuning a control-gate-defined potential landscape, we observe switching between mesa-defined and gate-defined trajectories and identify an intermediate regime in which a single launched excitation accesses multiple pathways. Time-resolved measurements at downstream locations reveal gate-dependent arrival times and pronounced temporal broadening, showing that the propagation dynamics are strongly modified by the local confinement and become increasingly dispersive in a multipath landscape. We further observe a long-range transverse optical response extending tens of micrometers into the bulk and persisting over distances exceeding 200 $μ$m downstream, consistent with the near-field component of an edge magnetoplasmon. These results establish direct experimental access to controllable multipath edge dynamics in the fractional quantum Hall regime and suggest a platform for engineered nonequilibrium and interference-based experiments, as well as future analog-spacetime studies in quantum Hall edge systems.

Electrically induced bulk and edge excitations in the fractional quantum Hall regime

We apply a voltage pulse to electrically excite the incompressible region of a two-dimensional electron liquid in the $ν=2/3$ fractional quantum Hall state and investigate the collective excitations in both the edge and bulk via photoluminescence spectral energy shifts. Introducing an offset in the voltage pulse significantly enhances the excitation signal. Real-space and time-resolved measurements reveal the dynamics of the bulk excitations, with an estimated group velocity of approximately $3 \times 10^4$ m/s. These bulk excitations align well with the magneto-plasmon model. Our results highlight the topological link between edge and bulk states, providing a novel approach to exploring solid-state analogs of quantum gravity.
