| Popis: | The magnetoplasmon spectrum of Landau level transitions in hexagonal boron nitride-encapsulated graphene is explored via infrared transmission magnetospectroscopy, as a function of the filling factor at fixed magnetic field. As the lowest Landau level occupancy is increased from half-filling, a non-monotonic progression of multiple cyclotron resonance peaks is observed, with a single peak evolving into four peaks and back to two, all with linewidths of order 0.5 meV. This provides a novel window on the interplay of electron interactions with broken spin and valley symmetries in the quantum Hall regime. Analysis of the peak energies shows an indirect enhancement of spin gaps below the Fermi energy, a Dirac mass at half-filling that is nearly 50\% larger than when the lowest Landau level is completely full, and a small but clear particle-hole asymmetry. We suggest a key role is played by the boron nitride in enabling interaction-enhanced broken symmetries to be observed in graphene cyclotron resonance. Comment: revised with additional magnetic field data |
