Comment on "Counter-propagating charge transport in the quantum Hall effect regime"
Abstract
Laffont et al. [Science 363, 54-57 (2019)] report an upstream current in the nu=2/3 quantum Hall regime, which, they claim, might be due to a counter-propagating charge mode. We show that this observation can also be explained by the expected upstream neutral mode, without the need for an upstream charge mode. Our results agree with the observed data and explain why the upstream current is observed only in the unpolarized nu=2/3 regime.
