Quantized heat flow in graphene quantum Hall phases: Probing the topological order

Topological quantum numbers are often used to characterize the topological order of phase having protected gapless edge modes when the system is kept in a space with the boundary. The famous examples in this category are the quantized electrical Hall conductance and thermal Hall conductance, which encodes the topological order of integer and fractional quantum Hall states. Here, we review the recent thermal transport study of integer and fractional quantum Hall states realized in graphene-based van der Waals heterostructures.
