Insulating state and giant non-local response in an InAs/GaSb quantum well in the quantum Hall regime

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present transport measurements performed in InAs/GaSb double quantum wells. At the electron-hole crossover tuned by a gate voltage, a strong increase in the longitudinal resistivity is observed with increasing perpendicular magnetic field. Concomitantly with a local resistance exceeding the resistance quantum by an order of magnitude, we find a pronounced non-local resistance signal of almost similar magnitude. The co-existence of these two effects is reconciled in a model of counter-propagating and dissipative quantum Hall edge channels providing backscattering, shorted by a residual bulk conductivity.
