a, Optical micrograph of the device. Scale bar, 3 μm. b, The neD map of Rxx at B = 1.5 T and base temperature, featuring the quantum oscillations corresponding to the QM state neighbouring SC1. c,d, The neD map of Rxx and Rxy at B = 0.1 T and base temperature, respectively. e,f, Magnetic hysteresis of Rxy at the green triangle and square positions in d. g,h, Temperature dependence of antisymmetrized Rxy in SC1 (corresponding to the red dot position in d) and SC2 (corresponding to the blue dot position in d), respectively. Curves are shifted vertically for clarity. h,i, Rxx and Rxy as a function of ne and B at D/ε0 = 0.955 V nm−1, respectively. The phase boundary between the QM and SC1 shifts to slightly higher density, suggesting the orbital magnetic nature of SC1. j, The neB map of Rxx at D/ε0 = 1.05 V nm−1, cutting through SC2. k, Magnetic field dependence of Rxx in two representative states inside SC1. We use 10% (indicated by the blue dots) of the normal state resistance to extract the Tc and 5% (red dots) and 15% (green dots) of the normal state resistance to extract the uncertainty of Tc in Fig. 5. l, dVxx/dI versus I in SC1 and SC2 at (0.61 × 1012 cm−2, 0.94 V nm−1) and (0.85 × 1012 cm−2, 1.05 V nm−1), respectively, featuring zero resistance at small current and the resistance spikes at critical current. m, The neD map of Rxx, highlighting (by the orange dashed curve) the phase boundary between the spin-polarized and valley-polarized QM and an UM. n, Temperature-dependent Rxx linecut at D/ε0 = 0.92 V nm−1, in which the QM–UM phase boundary (indicated by the orange dashed arrow) gradually shifts as T is lowered. The SC1 state develops to the right of the boundary, indicating the QM as the parent state of SC1. o, Linecuts from n, showing the QM–UM phase boundary as a kink (orange arrow) in Rxx, which shifts to lower ne as T is lowered.
