(abstract)

To determine the topological quantum numbers of quantum Hall (QH) states hosting counter-propagating (CP) downstream (Nd) and upstream (Nu) edge modes, it is pivotal to study quantized transport both in the presence and absence of edge mode equilibration. While reaching the non-equilibrated regime is challenging for charge transport, we target here the thermal conductance GQ, which is governed by quantum numbers Nd and Nu. Our experimental setup, realized with a hBN encapsulated graphite gated monolayer graphene device, facilitates experimental control over GQ quantization: For temperatures up to 35mK, our measured GQ at ν = 2/3 and 3/5 (with CP modes) match the quantized values of non-equilibrated regime (Nd + Nu)κ0T, where κ0T is a quanta of GQ. With increasing temperature, GQ decreases and even- tually takes the value of equilibrated regime |Nd − Nu|κ0T. By contrast, at ν =1/3 and 2/5 (no CP modes), GQ remains robustly quantized at Ndκ0T independent of the temperature. Our work opens a new route for finding the topological order of non-Abelian QH states and for accurately characterizing reconstructed edges.
