Condensation is observed in a gas of indirect excitons confined in an electrostatic trap. Imaging and interferometric measurements detect that excitons condense at the trap bottom and exciton spontaneous coherence emerges with lowering temperature. Below a temperature of about 1 K, the direct signature of Bose-Einstein condensation, the extension of coherence over the entire cloud, is observed.
在静电陷阱中限制的间接激子气体中观察到了凝聚。成像和干涉测量检测到激子在陷阱底部凝聚,并且随着温度降低,激子自发相干出现。在约 1 K 的温度以下,观察到了玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚的直接特征,即相干性扩展到整个云团。
