چکیده

We explore a simple theoretical model to describe the properties of Bose condensed para-excitons in Cu 2 O. Taking into account the exciton-phonon interaction and introducing a coherent phonon part of the moving condensate, we derive the dynamic equations for the exciton-phonon condensate. Within the Bose approximation for excitons, we discuss the conditions for the moving inhomogeneous con-densate to appear in the crystal. We calculate the condensate wave function and energy and a collective excitation spectrum in the semiclassical approximation. The stability conditions of the moving condensate are analyzed by use of Landau arguments , and two critical velocities appear in the theory. Finally, we apply our model to describe the recently observed interference between two coherent exciton-phonon packets in Cu 2 O.

6 O ct 1 99 9 Bosons in a Lattice : Exciton - Phonon Condensate in Cu

We explore a nonlinear field model to describe the interplay between the ability of excitons to be Bose-condensed and their interaction with other modes of a crystal. We apply our consideration to the long-living para-excitons in Cu 2 O. Taking into account the exciton-phonon interaction and introducing a coherent phonon part of the moving condensate, we derive the dynamic equations for the exc...

Exciton-phonon droplets with Bose-Einstein condensate: transport and optical properties

We discuss the possibility for a moving droplet of excitons and phonons to form a coherent state inside the packet. We describe such an inhomogeneous state in terms of Bose-Einstein condensation and prescribe it a macroscopic wave function. Existence and, thus, coherency of such a Bosecore inside the droplet can be checked experimentally by letting two moving packets to interact.

A pr 1 99 7 Critical velocities in exciton superfluidity

The presence of exciton phonon interactions is shown to play a key role in the exciton superfluidity. We apply the Landau criterion for an exciton-phonon condensate moving uniformly at zero temperature. It turns out that there are essentially two critical velocities in the theory. Within the range of these velocities the condensate can exist only as a bright soliton. The excitation spectrum and...

Low temperature kinetics of 2 D exciton gas cooling in quantum well bilayer

We study the kinetics of 2D Bose gas cooling provided Bose particles interact with 3D phonons. At low temperatures phonon emission is prohibited by the energy and the momentum conservation. We show that both particle-particle scattering and impurity scattering assist the Bose gas cooling. The temporal relaxation of temperature follows the law T ∼ 1/ √ t above the Berezinski-Kosterlitz-Thouless ...

Exciton condensation driving the periodic lattice distortion of 1T-TiSe2.

We address the lattice deformation of 1T-TiSe2 within the exciton condensate phase. We show that, at low temperature, condensed excitons influence the lattice through electron-phonon interaction. It is found that at zero temperature, in the exciton condensate phase of 1T-TiSe2, this exciton condensate exerts a force on the lattice generating ionic displacements comparable in amplitude to what i...
