Abstract

The Knight shift and the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T₁ of ⁷¹Ga nuclei are measured in GaAs quantum wells at Landau level filling factor ν = 1/2 using optically pumped NMR. The data are compared with predictions of a weakly interacting composite fermion model. Our thermodynamic measurements of the electron spin polarization and spin dynamics near the transition between fully and partially spin-polarized ground states provide new constraints on the theoretical description of the ν = 1/2 state. 1999
