Exciton Transport in a Bilayer Quantum Hall Superfluid    [PDF]

J. P. Eisenstein, A. D. K. Finck, D. Nandi, L. N. Pfeiffer, K. W. West
Bilayer quantum Hall systems at \nu =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 \nu =1 quantum Hall state.
