摘要
Current induced breakdown of the integer quantum Hall effect (QHE) is studied in GaAs/AlGaAs single heterostructure Hall bars at T = 1.6-4.2 K and B = 2-6 T (v = 2, 4, and 6). The QHE breakdown is absent over a macroscopic region in the two-dimensional electron gas channel on the side of the electron-injecting corner of the Hall bars. The observed nonlocal nature suggests that bootstrap-type electron heating is relevant to the QHE breakdown.
