Thermal Dephasing in the Laughlin Quasiparticle Interferometer: Chiral Luttinger Liquid Behavior
2005
We report experimental temperature dependence of the amplitude of Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in the Laughlin quasiparticle interferometer. The results fit very well the thermal dephasing dependence predicted for a g = 1/3 chiral Luttinger liquid interferometer, and are clearly distinct from the activated behavior observed in single-particle resonant tunneling and Coulomb blockade devices. The small deviation from the zero-bias theory seen below 20 mK indicates yet unrecognized source of experimental decoherence, not included in theory.
