Anisotropy-driven transition from the Moore-Read state to quantum Hall stripes

We investigate the nature of the quantum Hall liquid in a half-filled second Landau level (n=1) as a function of band mass anisotropy using numerical exact diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group methods. We find increasing the mass anisotropy induces a quantum phase transition from...
