Abstract

We study the dynamics of indirect (or dipolar) excitons (interwell IXs) in GaAs (111) double quantum wells (DQWs) subjected to a transverse electric field. In comparison with single (111) QWs, these DQWs can store, for a comparable applied fields and optical excitation density, a density of interwell IXs much larger than in SQWs, thus leading to stronger interwell IX- IX repulsive interactions. We show by means of spatially-resolved optical spectroscopy that interwell IXs in (111) DWQs can be transported over distances exceeding 60 μm. From the spectral dependence of the interwell IX spatial distribution profiles, we show that the long transport distances are due to drift forces arising from the strong interwell IX- IX interactions.
