An exciton is the particle-like entity that forms when an electron is bound to a positively charged 'hole'. An ordered electronic state in which excitons condense into a single …
Excitonic insulators (EIs) arise from the formation of bound electron–hole pairs (excitons), in semiconductors and provide a solid-state platform for quantum many-boson physics …
Two-dimensional moiré materials provide a highly controllable solid-state platform for studies of quantum phenomena,–. To date, experimental studies have focused on correlated …
Bose condensation has shaped our understanding of macroscopic quantum phenomena, having been realized in superconductors, atomic gases, and liquid helium. Excitons are …

An unambiguous observation of the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of excitons in a photoexcited bulk semiconductor and elucidation of its inherent nature have been …
An exciton, a two-body composite quasiparticle formed of an electron and hole, is a fundamental optical excitation in condensed matter systems. Since its discovery nearly a …

For a simple Hubbard model, using a particle-particle pairing operator η and a particle-hole pairing operator ζ, it is shown that one can write down two commuting sets of angular …
We propose that the exciton condensate may form in a well-controlled way in appropriately arranged semiconductor quantum well structures. The mean-field theory of Keldysh and …
