A consistent explanation of the formation of a ring-shaped pattern of exciton luminescence in GaAs/AlGaAs double quantum wells is suggested. The pattern consists of two concentric rings around the laser excitation spot. It is shown that the luminescence rings appear due to the in-layer transport of hot charge carriers at high photoexcitation intensity. Interestingly, one of two causes of this transport might involve self-organized criticality (SOC) that would be the first case of the SOC observation in semiconductor physics. We test this cause in a many-body numerical model by performing extensive molecular dynamics simulations. The results show good agreement with experiments. Moreover, the simulations have enabled us to identify the particular kinetic processes underlying the formation of each of these two luminescence rings.

We report the results of molecular dynamics simulation of a spatiotemporal evolution of the locally photoexcited electrons and holes localized in two separate layers. It is shown that the ring-shaped spatial pattern of luminescence forms due to the s
trong in-layer Coulomb interaction at high photoexcitation power. In addition, the results predict (i) stationary spatial oscillations of the electron density in quasi one-dimensional case and (ii) dynamical phase transition in the expansion of two-dimensional electron cloud when threshold electron concentration is reached. A possible reason of the oscillations and a theoretical interpretation of the transition are suggested.
We report on the spatially separated pump-probe study of indirect excitons in the inner ring in the exciton emission pattern. A pump laser beam generates the inner ring and a weaker probe laser beam is positioned in the inner ring. The probe beam is
found to suppress the exciton emission intensity in the ring. We also report on the inner ring fragmentation and formation of multiple rings in the inner ring region. These features are found to originate from a weak spatial modulation of the excitation beam intensity in the inner ring region. The modulation of exciton emission intensity anti-correlates with the modulation of the laser excitation intensity. The three phenomena - inner ring fragmentation, formation of multiple rings in the inner ring region, and emission suppression by a weak probe laser beam - have a common feature: a reduction of exciton emission intensity in the region of enhanced laser excitation. This effect is explained in terms of exciton transport and thermalization.
Hot-carrier solar cells are envisioned to utilize energy filtering to extract power from photogenerated electron-hole pairs before they thermalize with the lattice, and thus potentially offer higher power conversion efficiency compared to conventiona
l, single absorber solar cells. The efficiency of hot-carrier solar cells can be expected to strongly depend on the details of the energy filtering process, a relationship which to date has not been satisfactorily explored. Here, we establish the conditions under which electron-hole separation in hot-carrier solar cells can occur reversibly, that is, at maximum energy conversion efficiency. We thus focus our analysis on the internal operation of the hot-carrier solar cell itself, and in this work do not consider the photon-mediated coupling to the sun. After deriving an expression for the voltage of a hot-carrier solar cell valid under conditions of both reversible and irreversible electrical operation, we identify separate contributions to the voltage from the thermoelectric effect and the photovoltaic effect. We find that, under specific conditions, the energy conversion efficiency of a hot-carrier solar cell can exceed the Carnot limit set by the intra-device temperature gradient alone, due to the additional contribution of the quasi-Fermi level splitting in the absorber. We also establish that the open-circuit voltage of a hot-carrier solar cell is not limited by the band gap of the absorber, due to the additional thermoelectric contribution to the voltage. Additionally, we find that a hot-carrier solar cell can be operated in reverse as a thermally driven solid-state light emitter. Our results help explore the fundamental limitations of hot-carrier solar cells, and provide a first step towards providing experimentalists with a guide to the optimal configuration of devices.
We propose a state of excitonic solid for double layer two dimensional electron hole systems in transition metal dicalcogenides stacked on opposite sides of thin layers of BN. Properties of the exciton lattice such as its Lindemann ratio and possible
supersolid behaviour are studied. We found that the solid can be stabilized relative to the fluid by the potential due to the BN.
Bilayer quantum Hall systems at u =1 support an excitonic ground state. In addition to the usual charged quasiparticles, this system possesses a condensate degree of freedom: exciton transport. Detection of this neutral transport mode is facilitated
by the use of the Corbino multiply-connected geometry in which charge transport is suppressed. We here summarize our recent experiments on Corbino devices which directly demonstrate exciton transport across the bulk of the incompressible u =1 quantum Hall state.
