Abstract
Owing to their wide tunability, multiple internal degrees of freedom, and low disorder, graphene heterostructures are emerging as a promising experimental platform for fractional quantum Hall (FQH) studies. Here, we report FQH thermal activation gap measurements in dual graphite-gated monolayer graphene devices fabricated in an edgeless Corbino geometry. In devices with substrate-induced sublattice splitting, we find a tunable crossover between single- and multicomponent FQH states in the zero energy Landau level. Activation gaps in the single-component regime show excellent agreement with numerical calculations using a single broadening parameter
Γ≈7.2K. In the first excited Landau level, in contrast, FQH gaps are strongly influenced by Landau level mixing, and we observe an unexpected valley-ordered state at integer filling ν=−4.
