Excitons in electrostatic traps
We consider in-plane electrostatic traps for indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells, where the traps are formed by a laterally modulated gate voltage. An intrinsic obstacle for exciton confinement in electrostatic traps is an in-plane electric field that can lead to exciton dissociation. We propose a design to suppress the in-plane electric field and, at the same time, to effectively confin...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional electrostatic lattices for indirect excitons
We report on a method for the realization of two-dimensional electrostatic lattices for excitons using patterned interdigitated electrodes. Lattice structure is set by the electrode pattern and depth of the lattice potential is controlled by applied voltages. We demonstrate square, hexagonal, and honeycomb lattices created by this method.VC 2012 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.368...
متن کاملHarmonic-potential traps for indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells
We explain our method of creating an in-plane harmonic potential for indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells, which has been developed for experiments on Bose condensation of excitons in two dimensions, although this method may also be used for trapping a two-dimensional electron gas. The indirect excitons in our coupled quantum wells exhibit a Stark shift of over 60 meV and lifetime of appr...
متن کاملLocalization-delocalization transition of indirect excitons in lateral electrostatic lattices.
We study transport of indirect excitons in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells in linear lattices created by laterally modulated gate voltage. The localization-delocalization transition for transport across the lattice was observed with reducing lattice amplitude or increasing exciton density. The exciton interaction energy at the transition is close to the lattice amplitude. These results are co...
متن کاملLoading Stark-decelerated molecules into electrostatic quadrupole traps
Beams of neutral polar molecules in a low-field seeking quantum state can be slowed down using a Stark decelerator, and can subsequently be loaded and confined in electrostatic quadrupole traps. The efficiency of the trap loading process is determined by the ability to couple the decelerated packet of molecules into the trap without loss of molecules and without heating. We discuss the inherent...
