Dipolar superfluidity in electron-hole bilayer systems.

Bilayer electron-hole systems, where the electrons and holes are created via doping and are confined to separate layers, undergo excitonic condensation when the distance between the layers is smaller than the typical distance between the particles within the layer. We argue that the excitonic condensate is a novel dipolar superfluid in which the phase of the condensate couples to the gradient of the vector potential. We predict the existence of a dipolar supercurrent which can be tuned by an in-plane magnetic field. Thus the dipolar superfluid offers an example of excitonic condensate in which the composite nature of its constituent excitons is manifest in the macroscopic superfluid state. We also discuss various properties of this superfluid including the role of vortices.

Noise spectroscopy and interlayer phase coherence in bilayer quantum Hall systems.

Bilayer quantum Hall systems develop strong interlayer phase coherence when the distance between layers is comparable to the typical distance between electrons within a layer. The phase-coherent state has until now been investigated primarily via transport measurements. We argue here that interlayer current and charge-imbalance noise studies in these systems will be able to address some of the key experimental questions. We show that the characteristic frequency of current noise is that of the zero wave vector collective mode, which is sensitive to the degree of order in the system. Local electric potential noise measured in a plane above the bilayer system, on the other hand, is sensitive to finite-wave-vector collective modes and, hence, to the soft-magnetoroton picture of the order-disorder phase transition.

Nodal Cooper-pair stabilized phase dynamics in granular d-wave superconductors.

Scanning tunneling microscope measurements on single crystals of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x materials have shown that the d-wave superconductivity in cuprates has nanoscale inhomogeneities and is still robust in spite of their presence. We study the dynamics of Josephson coupling between such granular d-wave superconductors, focusing on the effect of nodal Cooper pairs and disorder. We find that the nodal Cooper pairs give rise to a power-law Josephson coupling which leads to the stabilization of the superconducting phase. Our findings suggest that the d-wave superconductivity in an array of grains is unexpectedly robust against a disordering transition, as observed in the experiments. Furthermore, we predict the existence of a planar Josephson-plasmon mode with characteristic frequency that decreases with temperature.
