Paired composite fermion phase of quantum Hall bilayers at nu=1/2+1/2.

We provide numerical evidence for composite fermion pairing in quantum Hall bilayer systems at filling nu=1/2+1/2 for intermediate spacing between the layers. We identify the phase as p_(x)+ip_(y) pairing, and construct high accuracy trial wave functions to describe the ground state on the sphere. F...

description We provide numerical evidence for composite fermion pairing in quantum Hall bilayer systems at filling nu=1/2+1/2 for intermediate spacing between the layers. We identify the phase as p_(x)+ip_(y) pairing, and construct high accuracy trial wave functions to describe the ground state on the sphere. For large distances between the layers, and for finite systems, a competing "Hund's rule" state, or composite fermion liquid, prevails for certain system sizes.
