The critical field of up to 2.6 T permits to enter the quantum Hall regime. In the superconducting state, we observe strong magnetoresistance oscillations, whose amplitude exceeds the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations by a factor of about two, when normalized to the background. Additionally, we find that above a geometry-dependent magnetic field value the sample in the superconducting state has a higher longitudinal resistance than in the normal state. Both observations can be explained with edge channels populated with electrons and Andreev reflected holes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-07-20T17:55:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "high magnetic fields", "hole transport", "andreev reflection", "edge states", "geometry-dependent magnetic field value" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
