Collective interlayer pairing and pair superfluidity in vertically stacked layers of dipolar excitons.

ABSTRACT: Layered bosonic dipolar fluids have been suggested to host a condensate of interlayer molecular bound states. However, experimental observation has remained elusive. Motivated by two recent experimental works [C. Hubert et al., Phys. Rev. X9, 021026 (2019) and D. J. Choksy et al., Phys. Rev. B 103, 045126 (2021)], we theoretically study, using numerically exact quantum Monte Carlo calculations, the experimental signatures of collective interlayer pairing in vertically stacked indirect exciton (IX) layers. We find that IX energy shifts associated with each layer evolve nontrivially as a function of density imbalance following a nonmonotonic trend with a jump discontinuity at density balance, identified with the interlayer IX molecule gap. This behavior discrimina
