[Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 036803 (2003)] still remains unresolved. We make a strong case that these modes are due to the \"magnetorotons\" in spinless neutral excitations. By calculating the dispersion of Girvin-MacDonald-Platzman mode using the recently proposed \"unconventional\" ground states for the fractional quantum Hall effect observed at the filling factors $\\nu = 4/11$, 4/13, 5/13, 5/17, 3/8, and 6/17, we show a generic formation of the primary magnetorotons for all these $\\nu$ at very low momenta with energies lower than a typical Zeeman energy in the semiconductor systems. We further propose an experimental criterion to test our theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-11-24T09:00:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.43.Lp", "71.10.Pm" ], "keywords": [ "filling factor range", "sub-zeeman energies", "magnetoroton modes", "fractional quantum hall effect", "spinless neutral excitations" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.156802", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2015, "month": "Apr", "volume": 114, "number": 15, "pages": 156802 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015PhRvL.114o6802M" } } }
