Spin-orbit coupling and the topology of gases of spin-degenerate cold excitons in photoexcited GaAs-AlGaAs quantum wells. Physical Review B, 86(11), 115321-. | Series/Report no.: | Physical Review B | Abstract: | We calculate the spatial structure of four-component spinor systems of mixed bright and dark exciton condensates in coupled quantum wells. The spin-dependent bright-dark exciton conversion and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling is found to generate a rich variety of topological elements. By propagating the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in imaginary time, we observe the following: single and multiple polarized vortices; the phase separation of bright and dark excitons; and exotic spatial structures in density and spin polarization. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/85892 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/43890 |
