An exciton, a two-body composite quasiparticle formed of an electron and hole, is a fundamental optical excitation in condensed-matter systems. Since its discovery nearly a century ago, a measurement of the excitonic wavefunction has…

Electron-hole bound pairs, or excitons, are common excitations in semiconductors. They can spontaneously form and ``condense'' into a new insulating ground state -- the so-called excitonic insulator -- when the energy of electron-hole…

Electrons and holes can spontaneously form excitons and condense in a semimetal or semiconductor, as predicted decades ago. This type of Bose condensation can happen at much higher temperatures in comparison with dilute atomic gases.…
