Abstract
To gain further insight into the underlying mechanism of the fractional quantum Hall state-to-nematic transition, we also studied the filling factor ν = 7∕2, the closely related cousin of ν = 5∕2, under pressure. The fractional quantum Hall state at ν = 7∕2 is expected to share the same physics as the ν = 5∕2 fractional quantum Hall state. Importantly, we find that ν = 7∕2 also undergoes the fractional quantum Hall state-to-nematic transition. Although there are key differences between the two transitions, this observation highlights the similar physics of these two states.
