Superfluidity has been predicted and now observed in a number of different electron-hole double-layer semiconductor heterostructures. In some of the heterostructures, such as GaAs and Ge-Si electron-hole double quantum wells, there is a strong mismatch between the electron and hole effective masses. We systematically investigate the sensitivity to unequal masses of the superfluid properties and the self-consistent screening of the electron-hole pairing interaction. We find that the superfluid properties are insensitive to mass imbalance in the low density BEC regime of strongly-coupled boson-like electron-hole pairs. At higher densities, in the BEC-BCS crossover regime of fermionic pairs, we find that mass imbalance between electrons and holes weakens the superfluidity and expands the density range for the BEC-BCS crossover regime. This permits screening to kill the superfluid at a lower density than for equal masses.

ABSTRACTThe many-body correlation effects in the spatially separated electron and hole layers in the coupled quantum wells (CQW) are investigated. A special case of the many-component electron-hole system is considered, ν>>1 being the number of the components. Keeping the main diagrams in the parameter 1/ν allows us to justify the selection of the RPA diagrams. The ground state of the system is found to be the electron-hole liquid with the energy smaller than the dense exciton gas phase. The possible connection is discussed between the results obtained and the experiments in which the inhomogeneous state in the CQW is found.

Theoretical studies of collective excitations of double quantum wells (DQW’s) in a strong magnetic field indicate that the systems undergo a phase transition when the well separation is larger than a critical value. For electron-hole DQW’s, we find that in the Hartree-Fock approximation this transition generates a novel excitonic density wave state, which has a lower energy than either a homogeneous excitonic fluid or a double charge-density wave state.
