dc.description.abstractWe report here our recent electron transport results in spatially separated two-dimensional electron and hole gases with nominally degenerate energy subbands, realized in an InAs(10 nm)/GaSb(5 nm) coupled quantum well. We observe a narrow and intense maximum (similar to 500 k Omega) in the four-terminal resistivity in the charge neutrality region, separating the electron-like and hole-like regimes, with a strong activated temperature dependence above T = 7 Kand perfect stability against quantizing magnetic fields. We discuss several mechanisms for that unexpectedly large resistance in this zero-gap semi-metal system including the formation of an excitonic insulator state.
