  4. Different viewpoints on the stripe phase nematic Stripe crystal smectic Also, elliptical Fermi surface... Oganesyan, Kivelson, Fradkin’01 A review available by Fogler in cond-mat . . .

  5. Wigner crystal: Pinning modes B In high B, at low filling factors, electrons form a Wigner crystal fpk is a measure of average pinning energy per electron; pinning energy lowers overall energy

  6. Outline • Microwave/rf measuring technique • Stripephase: anisotropic pinning mode • Stripephase in In-plane field: Turns resonances on and off Interpretation: pinning energy measured by resonance frequency

  16. What can be determining the stripe orientation • Native Anisotropy • not understood, weak, sample dependent • Finite thickness Bip - induced anisotropy energy • Calculated from CDW, finite layer thickness, • Favors stripe  Bip Jungwirth et al. PRB 99’; Stanescu et al. PRL 00’ • Measured by us: Pinning energy anisotropy • Disorder-carrier interaction, • Bip dependent: increases with Bip • Favors stripe | | Bip K B Cooper et al.. Solid State Comm 119 89 (2001) 30 nm QW, 2.7 1011/cm2 Pinning energy is relevant to determining stripe orientation!
