Abstract

AbstractExcitons are Bose particles with small mass. Exciton Bose–Einstein condensation is expected to occur at a few degrees Kelvin. Experimentally, an exciton temperature well below 1 Kelvin is achieved in coupled quantum wells (CQWs). In this contribution, we review briefly experiments that show a strong enhancement of the exciton scattering rate with increasing exciton concentration revealing bosonic stimulation of exciton scattering, which is a signature of a degenerate Bose‐gas of excitons. Novel experiments with exciton condensation in potential traps, pattern formation in exciton system and macroscopically ordered exciton state are also reviewed briefly.
