What is the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect?
A phenomenon of electrical resistance observed in two-dimensional electron systems at low temperatures and strong magnetic fields.
What are the main characteristics of the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect?
Fractional values of the Hall resistance, quasiparticles with fractional electric charge, and an energy gap in the density of states.
