Effect of Subband Landau Level Coupling to the Linearly Dispersing Collective Mode in a Quantum Hall Ferromagnet

Abstract

In a recent experiment (Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 036903 (2001)), Spielman et al observed a linearly dispersing collective mode in quantum Hall ferromagnet. While it qualitatively agrees with the Goldstone mode dispersion at small wave vector, the experimental mode velocity is slower than that calculated by previous theories by a factor about 0.55. A better agreement with the experimental data may possibly be achieved by taking the subband Landau level coupling into account due to the finiteness of the layer thickness. A novel coupling of quantum fluctuation to the tunneling is briefly discussed.
