Spin polarization of Quantum Hall states for filling factors 1 < v < 2 measured with microcavity polaritons

Spin polarization measurements were performed in three 2D Electron Gases in GaAs with densities n = 9.1, 7.2 and 6.5 x10^10 cm-2, in the quantum Hall regime. Full spin polarization at v = 1 surrounded by rapid depolarization due to Skyrmion formation was observed in all devices, consistent with past measurements. Depolarization of the v = 4/3, 8/5 states and repolarization of the v = 5/3 state was also measured, in remarkable agreement with a non-interacting, disorder-free Composite Fermion model. Optical power and temperature dependent measurements of the v = 1 state suggest a regime of non-linear optics.
