Abstract
AC transformer action of a quantum point contact separating quantum Hall states with distinct filling fractions $(\nu_{1},\nu_{2})$ is studied theoretically. The AC gain ($g_{\nu_{1},\nu_{2}}(\omega)$) of this setup is shown to exceed its DC bound ($g^{max}_{\nu_{1},\nu_{2}}(\omega=0) = 2\,\mathrm{max}\lbrace\nu_{1},\nu_{2}\rbrace/(\nu_{1}+\nu_{2})$) for a certain range of frequency in the presence of appropriate inter-electron interactions owing to displacement current induced by the ambient gate electrodes. This setup is also endowed with the unique possibility of having frequency tunable resonances and anti-resonances across the QPC.
