Fractional Quantum Hall Effect and Wigner Crystal of Interacting Composite Fermions

In two-dimensional electron systems confined to GaAs quantum wells, as a function of either tilting the sample in magnetic field or increasing density, we observe multiple transitions of the fractional quantum Hall states (FQHSs) near filling factors $\nu$ = 3/4 and 5/4. The data reveal that these are spin-polarization transitions of interacting two-flux composite Fermions, which form their own FQHSs at these fillings. The fact that the reentrant integer quantum Hall effect near $\nu$ = 4/5 always develops following the transition to full spin polarization of the $\nu$ = 4/5 FQHS strongly links the reentrant phase to a pinned ferromagnetic Wigner crystal of two-flux composite Fermions.
