Energy, interaction, and photoluminescence of spin-reversed quasielectrons in fractional quantum Hall systems

The energy and photoluminescence spectra of a two-dimensional electron gas in the fractional quantum Hall regime are studied. The single-particle properties of reversed-spin quasielectrons (QE$_{\rm R}$'s) as well as the pseudopotentials of their interaction with one another and with Laughlin quasielectrons (QE's) and quasiholes (QH's) are calculated. Based on the short-range character of the QE$_{\rm R}$--QE$_{\rm R}$ and QE$_{\rm R}$--QE repulsion, the partially unpolarized incompressible states at the filling factors $\nu={4\over11}$ and ${5\over13}$ are postulated within Haldane's hierarchy scheme. To describe photoluminescence, the family of bound $h($QE$_{\rm R})_n$ states of a valence hole $h$ and $n$ QE$_{\rm R}$'s are predicted in analogy to the found earlier fractionally charged excitons $h$QE$_n$. The binding energy and optical selection rules for both families are compared. The $h$QE$_{\rm R}$ is found radiative in contrast to the dark $h$QE, and the $h($QE$_{\rm R})_2$ is found non-radiative in contrast to the bright $h$QE$_2$.
