Three-particle complexes consisting of two holes in the completely filled zero electron Landau level and an excited electron in the unoccupied first Landau level are investigated in a quantum Hall insulator. The distinctive features of these three-particle complexes are an electron-hole mass symmetry and the small energy gap of the quantum Hall insulator itself. Theoretical calculations of the trion energy spectrum in a quantizing magnetic field predict that, besides the ground state, trions feature a hierarchy of excited bound states. In agreement with the theoretical simulations, we observe new photoluminescence lines related to the excited trion states. A relatively small energy gap allows the binding of three-particle complexes with magnetoplasma oscillations and formation of plasmarons. The plasmaron properties are investigated experimentally.

Superfluidity in e-h bilayers in graphene and GaAs has been predicted many times but not observed. A key problem is how to treat the screening of the Coulomb interaction for pairing. Different mean-field theories give dramatically different conclusions, and we test them against diffusion Monte-Carlo calculations. We get excellent agreement with the mean-field theory that uses screening in the superfluid state, but large discrepancies with the others. The theory predicts no superfluidity in existing devices and gives pointers for new devices to generate superfluidity.
The interaction between a single hole and a two-dimensional, paramagnetic, homogeneous electron gas is studied using diffusion quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Calculations of the electron-hole correlation energy, pair-correlation function, and the electron-hole center-of-mass momentum density are reported for a range of electron--hole mass ratios and electron densities. We find numerical evidence of a crossover from a collective Mahan exciton to a trion-dominated state in a density range in agreement with that found in recent experiments on quantum well heterostructures.
Exciton Mott physics in two-dimensional electron-hole (e-h) systems is studied in the quasiequilibrium, which is the crossovers or phase transitions between the insulating exciton gas and the metallic e-h plasma. By developing a self-consistent screened T-matrix approximation, we succeed in obtaining the global phase diagram on the plane of the e-h density and the temperature as a contour plot of the exciton ionization ratio. The detailed features of the exciton-Mott crossover at high temperature are figured out beyond the conventionally used concept of the Mott density. At low temperature, we find not only the region unstable toward the inhomogeneity but the pure Mott transition point characterized by the discontinuity in the ionization ratio. The single particle spectra also exhibit interesting features reflecting the excitonic correlations.
We report a Rashba spin splitting of a two-dimensional electron gas in the topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ from angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We further demonstrate its electrostatic control, and show that spin splittings can be achieved which are at least an order-of-magnitude larger than in other semiconductors. Together these results show promise for the miniaturization of spintronic devices to the nanoscale and their operation at room temperature.
Two-dimensional electron systems found at the interface of SrTiO3-based oxide heterostructures often display anisotropic electric transport whose origin is currently under debate. To characterize transport along specific crystallographic directions, we developed a hard-mask patterning routine based on an amorphous CeO2 template layer. The technique allows preparing well-defined microbridges by conventional ultraviolet photolithography which, in comparison to standard techniques such as ion- or wet-chemical etching, does not induce any degradation of interfacial conductance. The patterning scheme is described in details and the successful production of microbridges based on amorphous Al2O3-SrTiO3 heterostructures is demonstrated. Significant anisotropic transport is observed for T < 30 K which is mainly related to impurity/defect scattering of charge carriers in these heterostructures.
