Abstract
We study the principal aspects of the interaction between acoustic phonons and two-dimensional electrons in quantizing magnetic fields corresponding to even denominator fractions. Using the composite fermion approach we derive the vertex of the electron-phonon coupling mediated by the Chern-Simons gauge field. We estimate acoustic phonon contribution to electronic mobility, phonon-drag thermopower, and hot electron energy loss rate, which all, depending on the temperature regime, are either proportional to lower powers of T than their zero field counterparts, or enhanced by the same numerical factor as the coefficient of surface acoustic wave attenuation.
