Abstract
We present a generalized mathematical model for predicting the transport properties of a quantum system exposed to a stationary magnetic field and a high-intensity electromagnetic field. The new formulation, which applies to two-dimensional (2D) dressed quantum Hall systems, is based on Landau quantization theory and the Floquet-Drude conductivity approach. We model our system as a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) that interacts with two external fields. To analyze the strong light coupling with the 2DEG, we employ the Floquet theory as a nonperturbative procedure. Moreover, the Floquet-Fermi golden rule is adopted to explore the impurity scattering effects on charge transport in disordered quantum Hall systems. We derive fully analytical expressions to describe longitudinal components in the conductivity tensor in dressed quantum Hall systems. Subsequently, we demonstrate that the conductivity characteristics of quantum Hall systems can be manipulated using strong external light. Our results align with well-established and experimentally verified theoretical descriptions for undressed systems while providing a more generalized analysis of the conductivity characteristics in quantum Hall systems. Thus our model can be applied to accurately interpret the usage of strong external radiation as a tool in nanoscale quantum devices.
