We report a two-dimensional artificial lattice for dipolar excitons confined in a GaAs double quantum well. Exploring the regime of large fillings per lattice site, we verify that the lattice depth competes with the magnitude of excitons repulsive dipolar interactions to control the degree of localisation in the lattice potential. Moreover, we show that dipolar excitons radiate a narrow-band photoluminescence, with a spectral width of a few hundreds of micro-eV at 340 mK, in both localised and delocalised regimes. This makes our device suitable for explorations of dipolar excitons quasi-condensation in a periodic potential.

Emergence of algebraic quasi-long-range order is a key feature of superfluid phase transitions at two dimensions. For this reduced dimensionality interactions prevent Bose-Einstein condensation with true long range order, at any finite temperature. H ere, we report the occurence of algebraic order in a strongly interacting quantum liquid formed by dipolar excitons confined in a bilayer semiconductor heterostructure. We observe a transition from exponential to algebraic decay of the excitons temporal coherence, accompanied by a universal scaling behaviour of the equation of state. Our results provide strong evidence for a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition in a multi-component boson-like system governed by strong dipolar interactions.
Recently we reported on the condensation of cold, electrostatically trapped dipolar excitons in GaAs bilayer heterostructure into a new, dense and dark collective phase. Here we analyze and discuss in detail the experimental findings and the emerging evident properties of this collective liquid-like phase. We show that the phase transition is characterized by a sharp increase of the number of non-emitting dipoles, by a clear contraction of the fluid spatial extent into the bottom of the parabolic-like trap, and by spectral narrowing. We extract the total density of the condensed phase which we find to be consistent with the expected density regime of a quantum liquid. We show that there are clear critical temperature and excitation power onsets for the phase transition and that as the power further increases above the critical power, the strong darkening is reduced down until no clear darkening is observed. At this point another transition appears which we interpret as a transition to a strongly repulsive yet correlated $e$-$h$ plasma. Based on the experimental findings, we suggest that the physical mechanism that may be responsible for the transition is a dynamical final-state stimulation of the dipolar excitons to their dark spin states, which have a long lifetime and thus support the observed sharp increase in density. Further experiments and modeling will hopefully be able to unambiguously identify the physical mechanism behind these recent observations.
Correlations of luminescence intensity have been studied under Bose-Einstein condensation of dipolar excitons in the temperature range of 0.45-4.2 K. Photoexcited dipolar excitons were collected in a lateral trap in GaAs/AlGaAs Schottky-diode heteros tructure with single wide (25 nm) quantum well under applied electric bias. Two-photon correlations were measured with the use of a classical Hanbury Brown - Twiss intensity interferometer (time resolution ~0.4 ns). Photon bunching has been observed near the Bose condensation threshold of dipolar excitons determined by the appearance of a narrow luminescence line of exciton condensate at optical pumping increase. The two-photon correlation function shows super-poissonian distribution at time scales of system coherence (<~1 ns). No photon bunching was observed at the excitation pumping appreciably below the condensation threshold. At excitation pumping increasing well above the threshold, when the narrow line of exciton condensate grows in the luminescence spectrum, the photon bunching is decreasing and finally vanishes - the two-photon correlator becomes poissonian reflecting the single-quantum-state origin of excitonic Bose condensate. Under the same conditions a first-order spatial correlator, measured by means of the luminescence interference from spatially separated condensate parts, remains significant. The discovered photon bunching is rather sensitive to temperature: it drops several times with temperature increase from 0.45 K up to 4.2 K. If assumed that the luminescence of dipolar excitons collected in the lateral trap reflects directly coherent properties of interacting exciton gas, the observed phenomenon of photon bunching nearby condensation threshold manifests phase transition in interacting exciton Bose gas.
We study anisotropies of helicity modulus, excitation spectrum, sound velocity and angle-resolved luminescence spectrum in a two-dimensional system of interacting excitons in a periodic potential. Analytical expressions for anisotropic corrections to the quantities characterizing superfluidity are obtained. We consider particularly the case of dipolar excitons in quantum wells. For GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures as well as MoS$_2$/hBN/MoS$_2$ and MoSe$_2$/hBN/WSe$_2$ transition metal dichalcogenide bilayers estimates of the magnitude of the predicted effects are given. We also present a method to control superfluid motion and to determine the helicity modulus in generic dipolar systems.

We propose a theory of interference contributions to the two-dimensional exciton diffusion coefficient. The theory takes into account four spin states of the heavy-hole exciton. An interplay of the single particle, electron and hole, spin splittings with the electron-hole exchange interaction gives rise to either localization or antilocalization behavior of excitons depending on the system parameters. Possible experimental manifestations of exciton interference are discussed.
