Physical Review Letters, 110(24), 246403-. | Series/Report no.: | Physical Review Letters | Abstract: | We report the observation of spin currents in a coherent gas of indirect excitons. The realized long-range spin currents originate from the formation of a coherent gas of bosonic pairs—a new mechanism to suppress the spin relaxation. The spin currents result in the appearance of a variety of polarization patterns, including helical patterns, four-leaf patterns, spiral patterns, bell patterns, and periodic patterns. We demonstrate control of the spin currents by a magnetic field. We also present a theory of coherent exciton spin transport that describes the observed exciton polarization patterns and indicates the trajectories of the spin currents. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/85902 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/43887 |
