Abstract
A state with spontaneous interlayer phase coherence in a bilayer quantum Hall system based on graphene is studied. This state can be regarded as a gas of superfluid electron–hole pairs whose components belong to different layers. A superfluid flow of such pairs is equivalent to two electric supercurrents in the layers. It is shown that in a graphene system a state with interlayer phase coherence arises if a definite unbalance of the filling factors of the Landau levels in neighboring layers is created. The temperature of the transition into a superfluid state, the maximum interlayer distance for which phase coherence is possible, and the critical values of the supercurrent are found. The advantages of using graphene systems instead of GaAs heterostructures to realize bilayer electron–hole superconductivity are discussed.
