Selective manipulation and tunneling spectroscopy of broken-symmetry quantum Hall states in a hybrid-edge quantum point contact

We present a device architecture of hybrid-edge and dual-gated quantum point contact. We demonstrate improved electrostatic control over the separation, position, and coupling of each broken-symmetry compressible strip in graphene. Via low-temperature magnetotransport measurement, we demonstrate selective manipulation over the evolution, hybridization, and transmission of arbitrarily chosen quantum Hall states in the channel. With gate-tunable tunneling spectroscopy, we characterize the energy gap of each symmetry-broken quantum Hall state with high resolution on the order of ∼0.1 meV.
