A tunable Fabry-Pérot quantum Hall interferometer in graphene (2008.11222v3)

Abstract: Electron interferometry with quantum Hall edge channels holds promise for probing and harnessing exotic exchange statistics of non-Abelian anyons. In semiconductor heterostructures, however, quantum Hall interferometry has proven challenging and often obscured by charging effects. Here we show that high-mobility monolayer graphene equipped with a series of gate-tunable quantum point contacts that act as electron beam-splitters provides a model system to perform Fabry-P\'{e}rot quantum Hall interferometry. We observe high-visibility Aharonov-Bohm interference free of charging effects and widely tunable through electrostatic gating or magnetic field, in remarkable agreement with theory. A coherence length of $\mathbf{10 \,\mu m}$ at a temperature of $0.02$ K allows us to further achieve coherently-coupled double Fabry-P\'{e}rot interferometry. Our results open a new avenue for quantum Hall interferometry and the exploitation of topological excitations for quantum computation.
