Coherent Properties of a Magnetoexciton Condensate in a Hall Dielectric

Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Shear interferometry is used to study the coherent properties of a dense ensemble of triplet cyclotron magnetoexcitons in a quantum Hall dielectric near a filling factor of \(\nu = 2\). Compared to the gas of uncondensed magnetoexcitons, the magnetoexciton condensate formed at fairly low temperatures by nonresonant photoexcitation is found to have an increased degree of coherence. Its transverse coherence length reaches ~10 µm in order of magnitude. The fraction of the condensate can be as high as 20% of the total number of triplet magnetoexcitons.
