Experimental Study of the Exciton Gas-Liquid Transition in Coupled Quantum Wells.
Physical Review Letters 2018 January 27
We study the exciton gas-liquid transition in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells. Below a critical temperature, T_{C}=4.8 K, and above a threshold laser power density the system undergoes a phase transition into a liquid state. We determine the density-temperature phase diagram over the temperature range 0.1-4.8 K. We find that the latent heat increases linearly with temperature at T≲1.1 K, similarly to a Bose-Einstein condensate transition, and becomes constant at 1.1≲T<4.8 K. Resonant Rayleigh scattering measurements reveal that the disorder in the sample is strongly suppressed and the diffusion coefficient sharply increases with decreasing temperature at T<T_{C}, allowing the liquid to spread over large distances away from the excitation region. We suggest that our findings are manifestations of a quantum liquid behavior.
