超快光谱揭示了激子绝缘体中声子耦合激子的相干振荡。激子绝缘体是一个有趣的电子相的凝聚激子。一个突出的候选者是小带隙半导体Ta2NiSe5,其中的激子被认为经历了类似玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚的跃迁。然而,在这种材料中存在相干凝聚态的直接实验证据仍然缺失。这种状态的直接指纹将是对其集体模式的观察,这相当于超导体中的希格斯和戈德斯通模式。我们报告了在Ta2NiSe5的激子绝缘体相中存在相干振幅响应的证据。利用短激光脉冲的非线性激励,我们确定了凝聚态的声子耦合状态,可以理解为一种新的振幅模式。凝聚态密度的贡献证实了电子驱动相变的图像,并表征了激子绝缘体的瞬态序参数作为温度和激发密度的函数。
Ultrafast spectroscopy reveals coherent oscillations of a phonon-coupled BEC of excitons in an excitonic insulator. The excitonic insulator is an intriguing electronic phase of condensed excitons. A prominent candidate is the small bandgap semiconductor Ta2NiSe5, in which excitons are believed to undergo a Bose-Einstein condensation–like transition. However, direct experimental evidence for the existence of a coherent condensate in this material is still missing. A direct fingerprint of such a state would be the observation of its collective modes, which are equivalent to the Higgs and Goldstone modes in superconductors. We report evidence for the existence of a coherent amplitude response in the excitonic insulator phase of Ta2NiSe5. Using nonlinear excitations with short laser pulses, we identify a phonon-coupled state of the condensate that can be understood as a novel amplitude mode. The condensate density contribution substantiates the picture of an electronically driven phase transition and characterizes the transient order parameter of the excitonic insulator as a function of temperature and excitation density.
