Bose-Einstein condensation of dipolar excitons in lateral traps

Vladislav B. Timofeev, А. В. Горбунов, D. A. Demin

The phase diagram of Bose-Einstein condensates of dipolar excitons accumulated in lateral electrostatic traps is determined. Spatially periodic luminescence structures of the exciton Bose condensate and their critical dependence on pump level and temperature are observed. Coherence in the dipolar exciton Bose-Einstein condensates is studied by direct measurement of the 1-st and 2-nd order correlators with variations in pump level and temperature. These results are indicative of large-scale coherence of the exciton Bose condensate.

Transition to a Bose–Einstein condensate and relaxation explosion of excitons at sub-Kelvin temperatures

Kosuke Yoshioka, Eunmi Chae, Makoto Kuwata‐Gonokami

Quasiparticles in quantum many-body systems have essential roles in modern physical problems. Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) of excitons in semiconductors is one of the unobserved quantum statistical phenomena predicted in the photoexcited quasiparticles in many-body electrons. In particular, para-excitons in cuprous oxide have been studied for decades because the decoupling from the radiation field makes the coherent ensemble a purely matter-like wave. However, BEC has turned out to be hard to realize at superfluid liquid helium-4 temperatures due to a two-body inelastic collision process. It is therefore essential to set a lower critical density by further lowering the exciton temperature. Here we cool excitons to sub-Kelvin temperature and spatially confine them to realize the critical number for BEC. We show that BEC manifests itself as a relaxation explosion as has been discussed in atomic hydrogen. The results indicate that dilute excitons are purely bosonic and BEC indeed occurs. Bose–Einstein condensation of excitons in thermal equilibrium is a predicted quantum statistical phenomenon that has been difficult to observe. Yoshiokaet al. cool trapped excitons to sub-Kelvin temperatures and show that condensation manifests itself as a relaxation explosion as has been observed for atomic hydrogen.

Exciton condensation in potential traps

Леонид Викторович Бутов, C. W. Lai, A. L. Ivanov +2 more

Summary form only given. In the dilute limit excitons behave as weakly interacting Bose particles and are expected to undergo the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC). Because the exciton mass is very small at experimentally accessible exciton densities the critical temperature for exciton BEC should reach several Kelvins, i.e., about six orders of magnitude higher than the T/sub c/ for atom BEC. To create degenerate Bose-gas of excitons we propose quasi-2D gas of indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells (CQWs) which have two primary advantages for realizing a quantum degenerate exciton gas and, ultimately, the BEC-like phase transition: (i) the long lifetime of indirect excitons and (ii) the short exciton cooling time.
