Abstract
Mesoscopic Physics Two-dimensional materials in a magnetic field can exhibit the so-called quantum Hall effect. This regime is characterized by currents running along the edge of the sample in the “downstream” direction determined by the sign of the magnetic field. Lafont et al. studied electrical transport in GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructures, focusing on a previously less-studied spin-unpolarized state in the fractional quantum Hall regime. By considering various experimental configurations, they observed a component of the charge current flowing in the opposite, “upstream” direction. Science , this issue p.
