Abstract
Fractionally charged quasiparticles in the quantum Hall state with a filling factor nu=5/2 are expected to obey non-Abelian statistics. We demonstrate that their statistics can be probed by transport measurements in an electronic Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The tunneling current through the interferometer exhibits a characteristic dependence on the magnetic flux and a nonanalytic dependence on the tunneling amplitudes which can be controlled by gate voltages.Year: 2006 PMID: 17155568 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.97.186803
