It is emphasized that, though this strongly enhanced tunneling originates from spontaneous interlayer phase coherence, it is fundamentally not the Josephson effect. Because of strong interlayer correlation, the bilayer system behaves as a single system so that conventional tunneling theories treating two layers as independent systems are not applicable. Based on our theory, we compute the height of conductance peak as a function of interlayer distance, which is in good agreement with experiment.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-07-20T20:03:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "bilayer quantum hall systems", "exciton condensate", "conductance peak", "bilayer system behaves", "strong interlayer correlation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2004cond.mat..7535P" } } }
