Box 208120, New Haven, CT 06520-8120 y a (February 1, 2008) M Charged excitons of composite fermions (CFs) are considered in the fractional quantum Hall effect. Energies of the charged CF excitons are computed at ν = 1/3 as a function of the size of exciton. 7 We show that the charged CF exciton with size of roton is lower in energy than the unbound state 1 of a neutral roton and a lone charge. Therefore we propose that the lowest-energy excitation of the ] fractional quantum Hall effect is in fact due to the charged excitons of composite fermions composed l of two CF-particles and one CF-hole. We believe that charged excitons of composite fermions shed l a new light on interpreting the resonant inelastic light scattering experiments. h s- PACS numbers:71.10.Pm, 73.40.Hm e m.
