Individual contact potentials in the magnetized state at zero external magnetic field, normalized to the bias voltage. The bias voltage is applied to contact A with contact 1 grounded. The temperature of the measurement is: 25 mK (a), 560 mK (b), 1.4 K (c), 4.2 K (d), 11.6 K (e), 14 K (f), and 20.9 K with 25 K (g). Below the data in af, the corresponding simulated curves are plotted. (Contact 4 was not accessible during the measurement run below 1.4 K). At 1.4 K and above, the measurements of contacts B and 2 were multiplied by a factor of 1.00357, and contacts C and 3 by a factor of 0.9943, to correct for the amplifier gain differences between the different instruments in the experiment. Color coding is the same in (ag). h A schematic of the system’s chirality, with a description of the contact voltage order stemming from the chiral edge channel transport with bulk dissipation.
