Abstract
A high narrow peak in the interlayer differential tunnel conductance has been observed in heterostructures with two closely located electron layers at low temperatures. Analysis of the experimental results suggests that this peak is due to the interlayer phase coherence, which appears in the system under investigation owing to the Bose condensation of indirect excitons, i.e., pairs of electrons and holes from different layers in the absence of the magnetic field.
