Abstract
We present here the results from a density dependent study of the activation energy gaps of the fractional quantum Hall effect states at Landau level fillings ν=8/3 and 7/3 in a series of high quality quantum wells. In the density range from 0.5×10(11) to 3×10(11) cm(-2), the 7/3 energy gap increases monotonically with increasing density, supporting its ground state being spin polarized. For the 8/3 state, however, its energy gap first decreases with increasing density, almost vanishes at n~0.8×10(11) cm(-2), and then turns around and increases with increasing density, clearly demonstrating a spin transition.
