Exciton crystal melting and destruction by disorder in bilayer quantum hall system with total filling factor one
arXiv:2409.06155 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.110.195307
Abstract
Bilayer quantum hall system with total filling factor 1 was studied in the regime of heavy layer imbalance in a recent transport experiment [Zeng2023, arXiv:2306.16995], with intriguing new findings. We demonstrate in this paper that 1) the exciton Wigner crystal in this regime can melt into a superfluid phase, giving rise to re-entrant superfluid behavior; 2) in the presence of disorder, electron and hole Wigner crystals in the two layers go through a locking/decoupling transition as layer separation increases, resulting in a sudden change in the counter flow conductance. Comparison will be made with the findings of experiments.
