Observation of a Pinning Mode in a Wigner Solid withν=1/3Fractional Quantum Hall Excitations

We report the observation of a resonance in the microwave spectra of the real diagonal conductivities of a two-dimensional electron system within a range of ∼ ± 0.015 from filling factor ν = 1/3. The resonance is remarkably similar to resonances previously observed near integer ν, and is interpreted as the collective pinning mode of a disorder-pinned Wigner solid phase of e/3-charged carriers.
