We argue that broken-symmetry states with either spatially diagonal or spatially off-diagonal order are likely in the quantum Hall regime, for clean multiple quantum well (MQW) systems with small layer separations. We find that for MQW…
Bilayer quantum Hall systems can form collective states in which electrons exhibit spontaneous interlayer phase coherence. We discuss the possibility of using bilayer quantum dot many-electron states with this property to create two-level…

We extend the multilayer model of \etal{Kubo} for superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) structures in two ways: first, by generalizing it to arbitrary sequences of layers of arbitrary type, i.e. superconducting, normal conducting,…
Double layer systems where one layer has electrons and the holes are in a parallel layer a distance d away are expected to undergo excitonic condensation at low temperature. This excitonic condensate is traditionally described by a…

Influence of a nonmagnetic surface on the density of states in a spin-split superconductor, which is realized on the basis of a S/F bilayer, is investigated. It is demonstrated that if the ferromagnet magnetization has a defect in the form…
Recent experiments have shown that the edge states of a quantum Hall sample can be coupled to a superconductor, so that incoming electrons in the edge states can be Andreev converted by the superconductor as coherent superpositions of an…

For many layered metals the temperature dependence of the interlayer resistance has a different behavior than the intralayer resistance. In order to better understand interlayer transport we consider a concrete model which exhibits this…

Mobile holes in an antiferromagnetic insulator form a slowly fluctuating array of quasi one-dimensional metallic stripes, which induce a spin gap or pseudogap in the intervening Mott-insulating regions. The mobile holes on an individual…

We report single layer resistivities of 2-dimensional electron and hole gases in an electron-hole bilayer with a 10nm barrier. In a regime where the interlayer interaction is stronger than the intralayer interaction, we find that an…
We investigate the relationship of the spontaneously inter-layer coherent ``111''state of quantum Hall bilayers at total filling factor \nu=1 to ``mutual'' composite fermions, in which vortices in one layer are bound to electrons in the…
Bilayer graphene, in the presence of a one-sided spin-orbit interaction (SOI) induced by a suitably chosen substrate, is predicted to exhibit unconventional Quantum Hall states. The new states arise due to strong SOI-induced splittings of…
Bound electron-hole pairs in semiconductors known as excitons can form a coherent state at low temperatures akin to a BCS condensate. The resulting phase is known as the excitonic insulator and has superfluid properties. Here we…
